Hello, Sorry for the lack of information previously, so buried in the issue that I forgot people wouldn't know! :)
What we are after is to make our current DSpace (version 1.7.1 using Mirage) installation completely read-only, no submissions of new items and no edits of old. We've been told we need to migrate the data to a new system so need to baseline it for the export. I've only been using DSpace for a few months having inherited it for the upgrade to 1.7.1 so detailed instructions for a newby would be good if possible. ;) Many thanks to Matt for his response so far. kind regards, Claire On 02/02/2012 13:06, Henry, Matt - OPS District Computer Technician wrote: > When you say read only do you mean that no one is able to submit or edit > new items?
