Dear DSpace Community,
We're pleased to share an upcoming free webinar.
Moving from bepress to DSpace — A Migration Story
The University of Massachusetts Amherst Libraries migrated ScholarWorks@UMassAmherst from bepress' Digital Commons to an Atmire-hosted DSpace 7.x instance during the 2023-24 academic year.
In this session, presenters will walk through the development and implementation of their migration plan, as well as the steps taken to fully launch their new DSpace instance. Topics include:
-
Blocking Google requests
-
Identifying items that shouldn’t have migrated
-
Lifting preemptively placed embargoes
-
Cleaning up bad date formats
-
Discovering previously suppressed metadata that had been exposed
-
Managing the expectations of eager submitters and users
