[Dspace-general] Manakin Workshop and Online Event: Training for the use of Manakin

[Christina Richison]

DSpace Community,

 

NITLE is offering two opportunities to learn more about Manakin
<http://di.tamu.edu/projects/xmlui/manakin/> . 

 

Manakin, the new interface development toolkit for DSpace, is an
exciting new technology that allows for extensive modification and
customization of the default DSpace interfaces. Manakin gives
institutions considerable power to brand and theme DSpace interfaces to
match local web styles, to introduce new interface elements and
features, and even to create new ways for users to interact with objects
in the DSpace repository. A sample Manakin DSpace interface that
integrates spatial data coordinated into a graphical display can be seen
at: http://txspace.tamu.edu/handle/1969.1/2490.

 

90 minute online opportunity: April 8, 2009, 3:00 - 4:30 p.m. EDT,
