Re: [Dspace-tech] Custom submission based on dc:type
Hi again, Just to answer my own question. I think I come up with a clever idea on showing various fields depending on dc:type. I put all the fields into a single step workflow (since I only have about 15 unique properties) and I will show/hide fields depending on what user selects on the first field of the form which is dc:type. First the user selects 'Book', so I show from Javascript 'title', 'ISBN'. If changes to Contact - I hide those and show name and email etc. -- Cristian On 12/19/2011 05:23 PM, Cristian Romanescu wrote: Greetings, I'm a newcomer here, using DSpace since last week, hopefully posting to the correct mailing list. I'm customizing DSpace instance where we have Communities - Collections - Items (that differ from each other by dc:type). Items can be: people, books etc., each having its own set of fields, but also common fields (name). By reading the manual I found out that item-submission.xml can be customized only for each type of collection, but not for item type from a collection. Is this true? Or can I customize the forms for each item type (different dc:type) in subsequent steps of the workflow? I'm wondering how you handled such a scenario in DSpace.

Re: [Dspace-tech] search can't sort by date issued
My very wild guess would be that it's related to a value in date issued that breaks the creation of the index on this value. This could be verified if you can setup an almost empty DSpace, with a few records of which you know they all have valid values for date issued. After this test, we would know whether it's related to the metadata or whether there's a deeper problem. -- [image: logo] *Bram Luyten* *@mire* *2888 Loker Avenue East, Suite 305, Carlsbad, CA. 92010* *Esperantolaan 4, Heverlee 3001, Belgium* http://www.atmire.com/www.atmire.com On Tue, Dec 20, 2011 at 2:26 PM, Peter Warrington pwarring...@dmu.ac.ukwrote: For us, this occurs with the regular search. ** ** Pete ** ** *From:* bluy...@gmail.com [mailto:bluy...@gmail.com] *On Behalf Of *Bram Luyten *Sent:* 20 December 2011 13:16 *To:* Peter Warrington *Cc:* dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net; susan.m.thorn...@nasa.gov *Subject:* Re: [Dspace-tech] search can't sort by date issued ** ** Apologies if this has been asked before, but is this occurring with the regular search or with Discovery enabled?

[Dspace-tech] metadata survey results
Dear DSpace Community - (apologies for the cross-posting) Below is a message from the DSpace Community Advisory Team about the recent community survey on improving metadata support. Valorie Hollister Director of Community Programs DuraSpace vhollis...@duraspace.org -- At the request of the DSpace Committers and Developers, the DSpace Community Advisory Team (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/cmtygp/DSpace+Community+Advisory+Team) (DCAT) has begun an effort to build a community consensus on improving the metadata support in future DSpace releases. Last month this process began with a community survey to collect feedback on what improvements organizations would like to see relative to metadata support in DSpace. Survey Result Highlights * 84% of respondents use DSpace or plan to use DSpace * 86% of respondents indicated that Dublin Core was the most relevant metadata standard for their organization * In addition to Dublin Core, respondents saw a need to support ingest and export for the following standards, in order of priority: Dublin Core, MODS, PREMIS, Open URL ContextObject, ETD-MS * 72% of respondents indicated it is a priority to add metadata authority controls/vocabularies to the data model * 62% of respondents indicated it is a priority to have enhanced metadata for Communities, Collections and/or individual Files (bitstreams) * 56% of respondents indicated it is a priority to update to update the Qualified Dublin Core registry to the latest standards of the DCMI. * 54% of respondents indicated would not have objections to prohibiting changes/deletions that would break compliance with the standardized default Dublin Core metadata schema The complete survey results are available here: http://www.dspace.org/images/publications/Metadata%20Support%20Survey%20Final.pdf Where do we go from here? From the survey it is clear that improvements to metadata support in DSpace could help solve some common challenges for many organizations. Many will agree that there is no one size fits all repository software. DSpace is the most popular repository software, used by over 1,000 organizations for a reason – it is relatively easy to get a repository up and running. Because of this the DSpace developers have to be careful that adding functionality it is not at the cost of making it more difficult for the vast majority of DSpace use cases. With that in mind, DCAT has proposed exploring the following priorities with the DSpace Committers/Developers and the user community: 1) Add metadata authority controls/vocabularies to the data model. Since there is an existing add-on for controlled vocabularies (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Authority+Control+of+Metadata+Values), DCAT interprets this to mean that we should open up the rights to use a controlled vocabulary and possibly link it from an external source. Some examples would be the National Agricultural Library (linked open data) and the National Library of Medicine (subject based). 2) Update the Qualified Dublin Core registry to the current DCMI standards, adopting the newer DC Terms namespace (http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/ ) as an evolutionary step over the 15 original elements (http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/) in the dc namespace. Based on the community survey, DCAT also recommends that the default configuration should separate out standardized DC metadata, administrative metadata and local customizations into distinct metadata schemas. Repository administrators would be prevented from modifying the standardized DC metadata which would effectively break compliance. Instead, local modifications would be accomplished in a separate metadata schema. 3) Enhanced the metadata available for Community, Collections and Files (bitstreams). Unlike Items, Collections, Communities and Files (bitstreams) currently do not have Dublin Core metadata associated with them. The community has expressed an interest in making the available descriptions more granular. 4) Simplify and make local customizations more accessible by bringing more functionality into the user interface or metadata registry. This could also include a utility to import/export metadata to a schema other than DC. Some community members expressed an interest in exposing the RDF triples. In addition, DCAT recommends a comprehensive tutorial on how/where to perform specific metadata schema tasks be developed. 5) Explore the implications of offering hierarchal metadata in DSpace and whether it makes sense, given the DSpace/Fedora integration work. Hierarchal metadata would allow for relationships between community/collection/bitstream metadata. Because Fedora metadata is not stored in the database, as it is in DSpace, but in files, the relational aspect functionality in Fedora is more flexible. It is hoped that the DSpace/Fedora

This dynamic organizational wiki structure is aimed at creating a comprehensive set of training and educational resources for DSpace and Fedora users. Once it is populated with content, the KnowledgeBase will help new users walk through the steps of how to get a repository up and running as well as various basic administrative tasks. Included in this wiki-based guide will be a variety of delivery tool options including text, images, diagrams, screencasts, presentation slides, webinars and more. So far efforts on the KnowledgeBase have focused on designing a flexible structure to make it easy for community members to contribute any size or variety of content. In consultation with the community, DuraSpace has built an interactive home for materials, identified potential tools/guidelines for content contributions, drafted a list of topics to be covered, defined community roles as well as created some sample content. To learn more about the KnowledgeBase, you can visit the main KnowledgeBase page (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/KB/Welcome+to+KnowledgeBase), the DSpace KnowledgeBase page (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/KB/Welcome+to+KnowledgeBase) or Fedora KnowledgeBase page (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FedoraKB/Fedora+KnowledgeBase). You may also take a look at some sample content: DSpace text-based/image content (https://wiki.duraspace.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=25467341), a DSpace screencast (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSpaceKB/Upgrading+DSpace) and a Fedora screencast (https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/FedoraKB/Rebuilding+Indexes). The KnowledgeBase’s future usefulness depends on the collaborative efforts of the DSpace and Fedora user communities. The structure has been specifically designed to encourage members of the community to make bite-sized contributions -- text guide for one topic, a short screencast or attaching a link to presentation slides or other useful resources. We hope that you will consider contributing content or becoming a content moderator!

Re: [Dspace-tech] search can't sort by date issued
Interesting. I just looked at Items I just imported and I did NOT specify what any of these 3 fields should be in dublin_core.xml – they all got set by DSpace (version 1.7.1). It’s interesting that date.issued is the only one with a different format: DC Field Value Language dc.date.accessioned2011-12-20T18:59:53Z - dc.date.available 2011-12-20T18:59:53Z - dc.date.issued 2011-12-20 - I wonder if maybe this is the problem….?

That's a very good guess! I haven't yet gotten around to building a dspace with some more debugging around the search code to see what's actually happening, but this is very plausible. Looking the our DB, there were a few non-ISO format dates, and a couple nulls. I updates the bad format dates, removed the nulls, and reindexed, but search by date issued still doesn't work. Do all the dates need to be in a more specific format? (like full ISO: 2000-01-12T12:13:14Z).
