Re: [Dspace-tech] PDF Thumbnails, installed, but caused a lot of, trouble!
Ruzbeh, Assuming the table names haven't changed from 1.4.x and there is no bitstream management in 1.5.x, you could probably do something like: update bitstream set deleted=true where name like '%.pdf.jpg'; and then run $DSPACE/bin/cleanup to get rid of the thumb files in the assetstore You might also need to also do: delete from bundle2bitstream where bitstream_id in (select bitstream_id from bitstream where name like '%.pdf.jpg'); as I'm not sure whether the cleanup job will do this or whether this is done when a bitstream is manually deleted. Alternatively you could just write a quick java program to delete these using the API which could be safer than relying on my memory!

Re: [Dspace-tech] citations, journals, volumes, issues, , articles and dublin core
Hi Mark, In a DSpace context I think a major problem is lack of agreement on, or default implementation for a storage model for various classes of content (typically aggregations). If this could be achieved then value-add services could be far more easily connected - dissemination services such as Manakin (flexible themes, theme re-use, them choice, continuous improvement of targetted themes)and greater interoperability in a broader context. The technology part is solved. The standards and the tools are (mostly) there. The consistency isn't. For example, in a DSpace context there are three journal models I know of: the one we developed under APSR; TDL's journal display; and FORESITE as well as probably variants on just using DC for container relations you mention below, and who knows what Fedora or other platforms do. There are probably others. I personally don't think much progress will be made in the repository value-add service space (i.e. anything other than storage and file-level access) without content and interchange models. I'm not saying there is just one (right) way to package or store journals, but if there are more than two or three I think we just get stuck in a set of unsustainable proprietary implementations which require an equal number of unsustainable proprietary solutions in order to migrate or exchange content *in a meaningful form* over time. Fedora appear to be looking at this space in its new Content Model Architecture, but from a cursory look they are again just providing tools to achieve (a large set of unsustainable?) implementations rather than work on reference implementations for more complex object classes such as journals or other aggregations. Given the joint nature of DSpace and Fedora development and the new OAI-ORE space with its aggregations and re-use and exchange scope the technologies are available to address this but it still needs some content/metadata modelling to provide consistency for value-add service providers. Some of the work we have recently been doing involves developing METS Profiles for particular content classes which allows at least consistency in the packaging of materials for deposit to a repository (or some target process). We expect this work to continue over the coming years as we have been funded to being development of an Australian Data Commons, and this is unachievable without addressing the kind of problem you describe in you mail below. It's not a fast process. Scott. Message: 3 Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2009 09:34:20 -0500 From: Mark H.

It seems to me that metadata support for journal articles, while fundamental, is the least of our worries in this area. People have been cataloging journal articles for a long time, and it shouldn't be that hard to map established practice to a mechanical representation. More urgently, I feel, we need to think a bit about how we ought to go forward. I see two roads: o adapt repository software (such as DSpace) to permit the behaviors needed in representing paper journals online o develop the most appropriate ways of organizing journal articles for online presentation, and support those ways People are used to seeing papaer journals as *ordered* collections of articles (buttered in-between with features and announcements and similar matter) as issues within *ordered* collections of issues as volumes. To go this route, we need to generalize a bit so that we can create new subclasses of containment in addition to communities and collections and items. Order hasn't received enough attention in the design of DSpace. But is that really the most useful way of organizing journal articles? It's important to keep the association with the journal brand, and it's valuable to preserve the binding to time, but I don't think that people read volumes or journals; even if they habitually read from cover to cover, what they read is articles and features and whatnot. Is there really a need for volume and issue to be structural elements at all? If we simply tag items with these attributes as metadata, and provide top-quality tools for searching on these attributes (as well as others), won't that serve? If we have a submission process that can deal efficiently with repetitive metadata when submitting items which are related, won't that be sufficient? How do readers, and catalogers, *want* to do their work? How close can we reasonably get? We have a new medium to work with, and we should be
Re: [Dspace-tech] How to order the articles within an issue
Hi Andrew, Your suggested approach using collections for issues and (sub-)community for journals is the approach we took. Unfortunately the hosted journal that intended to go into production didn't eventuate so it isn't implemented in our production repository but there is a screencast (http://www.apsr.edu.au/ore/) and a more recent presentation (http://www.apsr.edu.au/open_access_publishing/yeadon%20ojs-sword.pdf) you can look at which helps illustrate the approach we took. For ordering the items within an issue an OAI-ORE aggregation is generated by a DSpace journal METS ingestion module. We've done a little more work on this late last year, but the above links give you an idea of the process. If you want further info, feel free to contact me off list, as I don't think we've posted the lastest source anywhere. The downside to all these different approaches for journal storage in DSpace is that Manakin themes can't be shared, but I think to achieve theme sharing beyond simple objects needs some co-ordinated DSpace storage modelling of compound objects and community agreement which is no small task. Good luck!

Rather than repeat the web site blurb refer to the follow web pages: Australian METS Profile: http://www.apsr.edu.au/nla-mets/index.htm Repository Submission Service: http://www.apsr.edu.au/submission_service/index.htm Manakin Theme Editor (also comes bundled with Submission Service): http://www.apsr.edu.au/dissemination_service/index.htm Note that if experimenting with the Manakin theme editor I'd suggest pointing it at an image collection, as the conference and journal collections have specific requirements as to how these materials are stored. Some of the code from this will be incorporated in Fez 2.0 and is applicable to any repository which can generate DRI-compliant XML. While we can't commit to further development of the latter two software packages (all was developed under funded project monies), we will be attempting to build on work delivered under APSR in future projects.

The metadata that I'm importing from a spreadsheet contains latitude longitutude information which I'm using to generate kml files (for import to dspace along with the other data files). I'm not familiar with manakin but I'm assuming that at some stage we might use it to provide a customised user interface to the collection that would include display of google-map-like features. Yes, Leo does this for bidwern but uses Manakin (cocoon) to generate the kml on the fly rather than archive it. From what you say, it sounds like it could be useful to include path information in the metadata. Do you have any thoughts on best options for doing this? E.g. would I add a repeating custom metadata text field containing an entry for each file? You could do that, it depends what the metadata represents as to how you map it e.g. does it represent subject, discipline, etc or is it fairly arbitrary. Also - I'm not familiar with how dspace arranges file storage. Would the file path metadata entry be a replication of the entry as recorded in the contents file? The path used in the contents file would be stored as metadata with each bitstream. Each bitstream however is renamed by DSpace and stored in the DSpace assetstore, so the file path, once in DSpace only exists as metadata. Bye rowan - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

In your DSpace config file put the following entry: webui.itemdisplay.default = dc.title, dc.title.alternative, dc.contributor.*, dc.subject, dc.date.issued, dc.publisher, dc.identifier.citation, dc.relation.ispartofseries, dc.description.abstract, dc.description, dc.identifier.govdoc, dc.identifier.uri(link), dc.identifier.isbn, dc.identifier.issn, dc.identifier.ismn, dc.identifier The date.issued field is by default formatted to a date (see ItemTag.java for the hardcoded list) using the dc.date.issued(date) field display text. Removing the (date) part of this will stop any special rendering taking place. Also, setting: webui.itemlist.columns = dc.date.issued, dc.title, dc.contributor.* in the dspace.cfg file may also resolve your ranges not showing up in the browse page (the default specifies dc.date.issued(date)), so as above removing the rendering rules should fix this) There should also be a section in the docs covering the above config items you could have a look at, since you may also want to customise your simple view and browse columns. I have put together a series of screenshots to indicate the issues: http://indica-et-buddhica.org/sections/repositorium-preview/known-issues/dspace-item-date-ranges As you will see, I am - unhappily - coming to the conclusion that DSpace does not support item date ranges at all. It is also becoming clear that the lack of genuine validation by the item importer can easily lead to the widespread corruption of ones metadata. I hope I am wrong as these would be serious deficiencies. I imagine the reason validation is not included is that DSpace in general doesn't set down value format rules, since every institution is likely to have differing requirements. Having said that, there is no easy plugin to set your own rules, you would have to modify the import process to support this if you needed it, or pre-process your material prior to loading to apply any rules you need enforced. Hope that helps. Scott. Best regards, Richard Mahoney Scott.

What exactly is the required Value format and is it configurable? Simple date Values such as the following present no difficulty: dcvalue element=date qualifier=issued1970/dcvalue The trouble for me -- and this situation would arise often for many projects -- is how to correctly represent date ranges, for e.g., date issued, 1964 to 1970. Which Value format should should be used to represent a date range in DSpace DC? Some DSpace version of the W3C-DTF/ISO 8601 scheme? http://dublincore.org/documents/2000/07/28/dcmi-period/ Best regards, Richard Mahoney - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [Dspace-tech] chinese search
You need to set your search.analyzer = org.apache.lucene.analysis.cn.ChineseAnalyzer in the dspace.cfg file and run index-all. Note that we use org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardAnalyzer which seems to handle a mix of Chinese and English quite well. Scott.

[Dspace-tech] dspace repositories: exposing MPEG-21 DIDL metadata using OAI-PMH?
Hi Alan,
Configure your oaicat.properties with:
Crosswalks.didl=org.dspace.app.oai.DIDLCrosswalk
Uncomment the |oai.didl.maxresponse| item in |dspace.cfg
|
That's all you need to do (plus restart Tomcat) to expose DIDL packages,
using metadataPrefix=didl
Verify the Crosswalk is activated by accessing a URL such as
|http://mydspace/dspace-oai/request?verb=ListRecordsmetadataPrefix=didl
|
There is a section in the Configuration section of the 1.4.1 document
that covers this (under the Activating Additional OAI-PMH Crosswalks
section cid:part1.03080902.06090706@anu.edu.au) that you should also
take a look at.
Scott.

My site recently upgraded its DSpace instances to 1.4.1. The DSpace 1.4
release info (URL
http://mailman.mit.edu/pipermail/dspace-general/2006-July/001064.html)
indicates that it's possible to expose METS and MPEG-21 DIDL DIPs via
OAI-PMH. At my site, we have been testing both mets and didl.
Retrieving mets records using OAI-PMH verbs has been working well.
However, I've been unable to retrieve records using didl. I'm
interested in communicating with staff or techs at a DSpace site that
has successfully exposed DSpace didl metadata using OAI-PMH. What steps
were needed to expose records in this extended format?
Any info would be appreciated, thanks!

Hallo,
I would like to know if it is possible with DSpace to catalogue web
resources (links to web pages or other digital resources). Essentially
I need to catalogue URLs without having to upload files.
I know that an instrument dedicated to this purpose is Scout Portal
Toolkit (http://scout.wisc.edu/Projects/SPT/), but I'm interested also
in classifying other documents too.
Anyone knows how or if it's possible with DSpace?
Thanks,
Mauro

Hi there!
We put an SRW client working properly!

request.setQuery(computer);
SearchRetrieveResponseType response =

//Object i = response.getResultSetId();
System.out.println(Resultados:+
response.getEchoedSearchRetrieveRequest().getQuery());
}
catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
##
It returns:
Results:1(this is the number of records finded)
Results:name (this is the author or the title of the item)
Our question is, how can we change this code to the answer to our request
returns the full description of the items stored on Dspace?
Thanks for the help.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace not indexing MS Powerpoint files?
Pan, You'll need to write your own media filter class to handle the extraction of text from PowerPoint files as ppt text extraction isn't currently supported by the default set of media filters. Hopefully someone may have already done this and will share, but if not you'll have to write your own using OpenOffice or some other means. Scott.
