  • Making the Most of DSpace 7.x Configurations:

    Has your institution upgraded to DSpace 7.x? Join us to learn how Paige Morgan and the University of Delaware repository team have successfully applied particular features or configuration changes. After Paige’s presentation, we’ll invite others on the call to share their experiences. Please note: we are not asking about customizations (which are often less sustainable) – this session is about adjustments that you have made within the default configuration. For example, if you have commented out the jurisdiction property within the configuration for Creative Commons licenses in order to get 4.0 international licenses.

    If you are able, please come prepared to share a useful configuration change, as well as any code snippets or links to relevant documentation within DSpace. We are interested in helping repository managers understand what configurations they can request from their development teams, and gathering together these configuration changes to share them with the wider DSpace community.
