Harvesting using OAI-PMH

[Sean Carte]

Is it possible to harvest an existing repository's collections into a new repository so that multiple collections from different communities are combined in the new repository?

For example:

Existing repository collections:

A

B

C

D

New repository collections:

A & C

B & D

As far as I've been able to figure out, I can set a collection to harvest only a single set of records. I can't find a way to append another set.

Hi Sean

Why not combine "in place" and then harvest?

By either playing around with underlying parent-child tables or batch metadata editing tool.

Thank you

Regards

Hi Bravismore

It's not my repository that I'm harvesting.

I see...

Is it a once off harvest or ongoing?

Once off, I suppose. It would be nice to be able to update the collection, though.

Hi Sean,

As a basic answer to the original question... you are correct, DSpace currently only allows you to set a Collection to harvest a *single* set of records.  There's currently no way to provide multiple harvesting settings for a single DSpace Collection.
