The default license does cover the case where the submitter is not the author, requiring that they (the submitter) have the authority to approve the license on behalf of the author (whether the submitter is a department's admin assistant submitting a paper on behalf of a faculty member, or whether the submitter is a faculty member submitting a paper she co-authored with others, etc.) We have a verbal agreement with new Communities when they join, but do not require them to sign a legal MOU (as does, for example, the CDL eScholarship repository). Some institutions will definitely want to consider a legal agreement with Communities, but we felt it was too much here, and would frighten off potential Communities unnecessarily. We're also in the process of adding support to DSpace for (optional) Creative Commons licenses (US version) which would cover the end-user rights to use the content -- yet another twist on the copyright and licensing maze! This is murky legal territory, and there is risk involved, but we hope to use this opportunity to educate ourselves and our faculty about what our options really are. I hope this is helpful, MacKenzie At 12:22 PM 6/3/2004 -0400, Merle Steeves wrote: >I am interested to know if DSpace implementers are requiring a signed >paper copy of the Non-Exclusive License with every item submitted.

I think letting disciplines follow their local practices makes perfect sense, unless you're getting challenged by a co-author? It sounds pretty unlikely that anyone would object to this practice...

If you want the gory technical details we should take this discussion to the dspace-tech list instead. -- Caveat: this answer is true for the 1.x releases only. The new 2.0 architecture being designed now by the DSpace developer community has the concept of Archival Information Packages (AIPs from the OAIS reference framework for digital archiving) which would replace bundles completely. -- The information architecture of Communities, Collections, Items, Bundles, and Bitstreams has always existed in the DSpace database tables. What we're discussing here is the degree to which the user interfaces makes it possible to put files into different bundles and treat them differently for display or other processing. What I will describe is how DSpace works *by default*, with the understanding that other solutions are possible with some local programming work. -- In older versions of DSpace (prior to the current 1.2 release) the submission user interface automatically assigned all bitstreams to separate bundles and they were all treated the same in the end user interface. So the existence of bundles in the information architecture wasn't really being supported. -- In the 1.2 release the concept of "named" bundles was introduced to handle the case of thumbnail versions of digital images, and full-text versions of documents (for indexing). In order to have separate named bundles for items, the submission UI was changed to put all the submitted bitstreams together into one bundle by default and to automatically create the separate thumbnail or full-text bundle as appropriate (i.e. the opposite behavior from before). -- This means that there is currently no way *in the submission UI* to assign different uploaded files to different bundles. If you needed to do that, you would have to change the submission UI to support it. This means that the example I gave before (i.e. you want two bundles -- one for the 10 TIFF images, and one for the PDF version) is *not* supported in the current UI, but it *is* supported in the underlying database tables -- you would just need to invent names for the new bundles, some way to assign uploaded files to the each bundle type, and some way for the public UI to know what to do with the different bundles (for example, display the PDF version, but suppress the TIFF version since browsers can't do anything with them). I hope this is clear... it's pretty complicated stuff. MacKenzie At 03:24 PM 6/23/2004 +0200, Michel Auffret wrote: >Hi MacKenzie, > >Thank you.

Alfred, as you say, there are many studies where it has been used for such purposes, and I am not sure any of them are valid. There are many possible meanings to "principal author." Usually it means a/ the person whose project it "is", in the sense of the work done for a thesis, But the term can mean: b/ The person who conceived the project, c/ the person who did most of the work, d/ the person who did most of the writing, e/ the person whose grant paid for the work, f/ the person responsible for this project in a large laboratory doing many projects g1/ the person with the highest rank (which is usually the same as g2/ the person with authority over the others, g3/ or the director of the laboratory. In most cases, the principal author (in whatever sense) places his name first. In the traditional master-and-students organization, tradionally the principal author in sense g/places his name first, followed by the one in sense a/, but now often the principal author in sense a/ is first and the one in sense g/ goes last. The practices here vary from subject to subject and from group to group. James Watson, for example, usually did not put his name on his students' papers at all. Everyone understood he was a joint author of anything in moleculat biology coming from "the Biological laboratory at Harvard." -- see his book Genes, girls, and Gamow : after the double helix / James Watson, 2002. Usually the principal author -- in whatever sense -- is indicated as the one "to whom correspondance should be addressed" in the conventional footnote to the list of authors. This does not even consider the various practices with collaborative projects between different laboratory groups, or an ad hoc collaboration between two individuals. To resolve this, many multi-author projects list the names alphabeticaly (and generally say so). In medicine, some journals now insist that there be a footnote listing specifically the roles of the different authors. Some instruction to authors even specify that those playing only a technical role are not authors, and that every author who is listed has at least read the manuscript. There have been disputes--sometimes to the level of allegations of scientific misconduct and legal suits, about who is entitled to be listed, and where. All this means, exactly as Alfred says, that in our case of self-indexing, each author group has the opportunity to do what it wants and may or may not designate someone if it pleases. How it decides gets us back to all the considerations above. How the relationships function belongs to the field of sociology of science; what the were in a given case, to the history of science. The only thing I want to caution is that the use of such data for citation analysis is not clear-cut. If one is doing a large study and cannot analyze each case, it is equally valid to take all the authors as equal, or divide the responsibility unequally. If the number were small enough, I would look for the "author to whom correspondance should be addressed" indicator. But we do not have to worry about all the above for our present purposes. Each group may, as usual, do what it chooses.

We often tend to confuse author in this sense with author in the scholarly sense, particularly when we are trying to assign values to things like contributor.author, since the qualified name suggests that it ought to have something to do with the copyright notion. Copyright law also makes occasional reference to "creation" and more frequent reference to "contributor". The two notions are, however, quite different. For copyright purposes under US law, the "author" of a work such as a joint-authored scholarly paper is probably all of the people who actually contributed expression (i.e. people who wrote portions of the text even if they aren't listed as authors on the title page), but not people who contributed the ideas or who did the experiments or who serve as PI in the lab. Note that in US law joint authors all own the copyright equally, any can assign rights, and all should receive portions of any royalties. However, this comparatively simple notion is further complicated by "work for hire" which in turn depends on agency law -- at many institutions a scholarly work prepared in the course of employment is actually "authored" by the institution, not by the individuals. And, of course, copyright ownership (though perhaps not "authorship") can be assigned, so the owner may not be the author. It's all a can of worms, and one that DSpace would do well to sidestep whenever possible. HOWEVER, it's one we can't totally sidestep, since in addition to having an impact on the metadata we store, it also directly impacts our rights as an archive to accept submissions -- we need to be confident that the works placed in our dspace archives are there legitimately, which often means that we need to know whether the person submitting them was a copyright owner at the time of submission.

I notice that future DSpace versions will deal with OAIS AIP's and that sounds well to us : our main purpose is long preservation.

Start by looking at DLearn: https://dlearn.arizona.edu/index.jsp from the University of Arizona. MIT is also working on this in a couple of ways: -- in our collaboration with Cambridge University we're investigating improvements to the system for supporting learning objects (e.g. support for the JSR168 portlet spec, support for IMS LOM metadata, support for interoperability with learning/course management systems via OKI and other protocols, etc.) -- we have project funded to figure out how to archive OpenCourseWare (course material for 2000 MIT courses) in DSpace, including metadata and packaging requirements, dealing with course websites, and dealing with disaggregating websites into component learning objects. So I think you can expect to see a lot of progress in this area over the next year, and there will be a SIG for this starting up soon which you'd be very welcome to join. As for the DC question, there is such an initiative at http://dublincore.org/groups/education/. I think that's what the GEM initiative is using, or plans to use...

We are currently testing our installation by loading articles and theses. We are also planning to load audiovisual materials, learning objects, scientific data sets, and possibly use DSpace to publish some local publications. We would like to hear about others' attempts (successful and unsuccessful!) at using DSpace to store data sets, particularly large scientific ones. We have not settled on a metadata schema for data sets but are looking at the Document Data Initiative ( http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI/) as a possibility. Any advice, warnings or other comments would be welcome.

The consensus is that one or the other must be specified by the publisher as being authoritative. Some publishers specify print, some online. The versioning problem, as this is called, is potentially a very serious one, especially if sites copy the contents of other sites but do not synchronize updates. Again, my advice is to do something simple, like date, and leave the further specifics to the next stage of refinement..

However, the installation of DSpace does require a good basic knowledge of Unix (Linux, etc.). Any further questions should not be directed to this list, but rather to the DSpace technical list, which is 'dspace-tech at lists.sourceforge.net'. http://libraries.mit.edu/dspace-mit/technology/system-docs/install.html -- Jason On Jun 29, 2004, at 7:48 AM, umesh puttaraju wrote: > respected sir, > ? > ?I am the student of university of mysore, from the department of > library and information science.

I have altered the MITAuthentication class to suit my needs. My question is, do I need to do ant -Dconfig=/dspace/config/dspace.cfg update OR just ant update. Also, do I change the webui.site.authenticator before or after I run ant update? thanks in advance! Kelly -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
