Apologies for the cross-posting.
Just a reminder that there is still time to register for the DSpace User Group
Meeting on March 5. The session will be held following the SPARC Open Access
Meeting in Kansas City. Please register here http://bit.ly/1fvE8Hs by March 1.
Below is an outline of 2 presentations that have been added since the last
announcement:
"Secrets of the Submission Form", Presented by Bram Luyten, @mire
Learn how your DSpace repository submissions can be easier for you and your
content contributors. By modifying your submission configuration you can use
these not-so-obvious hints to improve the quality of information in your
repository as well as minimizing the time it takes to complete a submission.
Topics to include:
Collection templates: pre-filling certain metadata fields on a per collection
basis.
Reviewer only fields: option to qualify fields in input forms to have them only
visible for reviewers in the workflow
Type based submission: inclusion of certain metadata fields in the form, based
on a selected submission type
Modifying your lists of dropdown values (the lists that are included at the
bottom of input-forms.xml)
Working with hierarchical controlled vocabularies (the XML based subject
categories)
Enabling LC Name authority control for author values
Collection based Input forms: duplicating an input-forms configuration &
showing the match between an input-forms config and a collection
Simple embargo & private item state
"Breaking down barriers: This is your community, here's how to participate!",
Presented by Hardy Pottinger, University of Missouri
If you are new to community-driven open source software development, you may
experience barriers to participation. This spirited and opinionated talk will
provide an overview of how community-driven open source software projects work.
You will be challenged to participate in the community in ways you may have
thought were not available to you. Traditional development tools and practices
will be faced off against more modern approaches.
