[Dspace-general] Custom Submission Screens

[courtois@ksu.edu]

Is it possible to create custom user submission screens for specific
Communities or Collections?

I'm brand new to DSpace, and just started working with our Grad School
last week on a 5 dissertation pilot project.  We had some problems with
my login, and I haven't even had a chance to fully explore the
submission and admin screens.

I can see, tho, that we'd like to make changes to some of the screens
users will see as they submit their dissertation.  One change, for
example, would be to remove the "Series/Report" field from the 2nd
"Describe" screen.  Another change would be to add a pull-down menu of
UMI subject categories to the 3rd "Describe" screen.  We'd like for
these changes to apply only to an ETD Community/Collection and may have
different changes to apply to other Communities/Collections.

My background is documentation and user training, although we do have a
programmer/developer on our team.  At this point, I just need to get a
general idea if this sort of thing is possible or if the submission
screens need to be consisent across all Communities and Collections.

Thanks for your help,
