The Scholar Embargo submodule is very similar to (and can even be used in conjunction with) the Islandora IP Embargo module. Scholar Embargo allows you to suppress the display visibility of objects in collections entirely, or allow the objects to display but disable a specified datastream on an object. Embargoes may be indefinite (meaning that they will persist until manually lifted) or temporary (meaning that they will persist until the specified expiration date chosen by an administrator, with email notifications 10 days before and on the day of an embargo's expiration).

The two primary types of embargoes are object embargoes and datastream embargoes. Objects with an "object embargo" will behave as if they don't exist for be hidden from public users; they won't display in collections or search results, and will yield an access denied page when public users attempt to access them directly by PID. Only privileged users will be able to see them (more on that below). Datastream embargoes allow the object to display normally in collections and search results, but a particular datastream (specified when the embargo is placed) will be unavailable to public users to view or download. For citation and thesis objects this will be the 'PDF' datastream, but Scholar Embargoes can be applied to any content model, extending the list of possible datastreams. In order to put a Scholar Embargo on content models other than citations and theses, you must enable them from the "Islandora Scholar Embargo" tab of the Islandora Utility Modules admin menu at admin/islandora/tools/embargo (example below).
