What is the DSpace Request Copy Add-on?

It was recently suggested by Stevan Harnad in 2006 that we develop a "request Reprint by email" feature for DSpace, similar to one that has recently been was then implemented in [ EPprints |http(ttp://www.eprints.org/
] /news/features/request_button.php) for deposits whose full-text access privileges are set to Closed Access or Restricted Access (RA) rather than Open Access (OA), in order to tide over any RA period with facilitated email access. The Request Copy Add-on is this feature developed by Minho University Documentation Services, initially for DSpace 1.3.2 and now also available for DSpace 1.4.

...

This feature will be very important for advancing OA if universities and other research institutions adopt the Generic Model for an Open-Access Self-Archiving Mandate. In this model, depositing immediately (upon acceptance for publication) is mandatory whereas setting deposit immediately to OA is merely encouraged, leaving the decision up to the author.

This is how 'Request Copy' feature works:
