[Dspace-general] Varying license text per item in a collection

You should be able to add the dc.rights.license field by using the metadata
registry editor. Log in to DSpace as an administrator, go to the
administrate menu, and select Metadata Registry. Then select Dublin Core,
and then use the option of adding a new field.

Thanks,


Stuart
