<p class=MsoPlainText>Alice, at the Smithsonian we have dovetailed the
repository work in with another project: Institution-wide research
bibliography. The Smithsonian Institution Libraries was asked to capture and
make available a list of all research publications by Smithsonian staff a few
years ago. This is for reporting purposes, PR and other reasons. Scholars are
required to enter bibliographic data of their publications into a web form
which the Libraries created but we try to pro-actively capture a lot of these
via Zotero/RefWorks and the various publisher and online database sites. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>We have a number of electronic alerts set up on
"canned" searches of the author affiliation field or general keyword:
Smithsonian. But for those we are not able to capture automatically, the
researcher is responsible (mandated, really) to enter the data by hand.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>After it is incorporated into the Smithsonian Research
Bibliography, the library staff contact the author and ask for a digital
version of the item. If there is one available, it is saved to our DSpace
server and we export the corresponding bibliographic record. Long story short,
we then bulk upload these things to the Repository.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>If you'd like more information, please feel free to
contact me off list.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>I'm curious to find out how other DSpace members are
managing their workflow. We are considering not using the built-in DSpace
workflow (for various reasons I will not detail here). The thinking is that we
will batch import groups of items instead of doing one at a time.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>We have students who can write the basic metadata, and a
digital content specialist who writes the more complex metadata such as
abstract/keyword information.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>I would like to know if anyone else has a similar
situation where two or more people are writing metadata without using the
DSpace workflow - and if you are in that situation, can you describe your
workflow to me? I'm trying to figure out the best arrangement.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Thanks in advance!<o:p></o:p></p>
