<font size=3>Hi Marty!<br>
<br>
I've just been experimenting with collection administrator role in DSpace
1. 2. Yes, the group name is COLLECTION_XX_ADMIN where XX is the DB
no. assigned to that collection.<br>
<br>
I was trying to figure out the policies for each of the functions that
collection administrators can perform are here is what my experimentation
shows:<br>
<br>
1. Edit submitters and Edit metadata - If you use the new Create
Collection wizard, and select "This collection will have delegated
collection administrators", the system automatically assigns the
policy "COLLECTION_ADMIN" to the group
"COLLECTION_XX_ADMIN". This allowed the group to "Edit
Submitters" and "Edit metadata".<br>
2. Item mapper - I had to manually add a policy of "ADD" for
the group to make this work.<br>
3. Withdraw items - I had to manually add a policy for "REMOVE"
to make this work.<br>
4. Edit collection metadata - Even though the documentation says you can
do this, I haven't figured out a policy that would work for this. Not
sure if documentation doesn't match what system does. The Admin help on a
collection page in DSpace 1.2 does not mention this fourth function so I
have assumed it didn't quite get incorporated. If anyone knows any
different, let me know.<br>

<br>
The DSpace System Documentation: Version History/Changes in DSpace<br>
1.2/Admininstration mentions a "collection editor" role:<br>
<br>
"Delegated administration - new 'collection editor' role - edits
item<br>
metadata, manages submitters list, edits collection metadata, links
to<br>
items from other collections, and can withdraw items."<br>
<br>
I'd to establish a group that has administrative rights only within
a<br>
specific collection.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
