<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">At the University of Victoria we have all students submit to one collection called ETD Collection. It is the only choice they have to choose from on the dropdown list, as they only have permission to submit to the
ETD Collection. But you will notice on the public browse screen in UVicDSpace, that we have all our collections arranged by Faculty then Dept. and the ETD Collection is under the Faculty of Graduate Studies.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">Each Faculty or Dept. wanted to have their own theses collections, so we created a Collection for them called Theses (Dept. of XYZ). In DSpace you can map an item to another collection, called item mapping, so part
of the archiving workflow is to map the thesis to the correct dept. collection. Have a browse of our IR and you will see what I mean.

<div dir="ltr"><font face="tahoma" size="2">In Canada it is important to have all your student submitted ETDs in one collection because Library and Archives Canada will harvest that collection. It would be problematic for LAC to harvest 25 different collections.
Any digitized backfiles of theses can be placed in a separate collection.</font></div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">I’m aware of the Manakin solution proposed on the DSpace wiki: (<a href="http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Change_the_way_the_collection_list_is_displayed_in_submit_link_%28Manakin%29" target="_blank">http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Change_the_way_the_collection_list_is_displayed_in_submit_link_%28Manakin%29</a>).

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">But we are currently running DSpace 1.5.1 with the JSPUI interface and have a different problem.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'"></span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">We are implementing mandatory ETD submission in the fall and will be increasing the number of Thesis & Dissertations collections in the repository. There will be a collection
for each faculty or department administrative process. (I would say around 25 different collections.)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'"></span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">We currently repeat the name of the community in the collection name for all the other collections in the repository. (i.e. “Faculty/Department XYZ – Publications”)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'"></span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">I was thinking of inverting this so that all thesis collections start with “Thesis & Dissertations – Faculty/Department XYZ”. That way, they would all show up at the end of the
collection list grouped together. (Easier for the students to find.)</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">So, any solutions or ideas on displaying the list of collections in a better way would be appreciated. If you see any future problems with my proposed solution, I would appreciate
the heads up.</span></p>
