DSpace FAQ

Can I add my DSpace holdings to Trove?

Yes!   We need to enable the OAI-PMH interface for your dspace instance.  You can then contact Libraries Australia to get them to set up automatic harvesting of your DSpace digital library contents so that your digital library resources appear on Trove.  There is no charge - it is a simple configuration option to establish this for your dspace instance.  This email address is being protected from spambots.

What support options are there?

We can host your dspace on our servers, or we can provide support for hosting dspace on your servers.  For repositories of > 100GB it is more cost effective to host on your own servers.  For repositories < 100GB it is very cost efficient for us to host your repository for you.  I you make use of dspace DOI persistant links (handles) then you can always move the dspace repositories to your own servers at a future date.
