OHMS, Omeka and DSpace

[Tamara Livingston]

Hello all,

Has anyone had experience with either:

1) embedding an Oral History Metadata Synchronizer (OHMS) viewer in an instance of DSpace?

2) configuring an Omeka site to import content from DSpace?

We are interested in creating an oral history portal using Omeka as the user interface and DSpace as our repository. The portal will feature mediated interaction with our oral history collection using the OHMS viewer.

OHMS is a two-part system which includes the web app (the back-end) and the viewer (user interface). The web application is used to prepare the oral history interview by embedding timecode into a transcript or creating a time-coded index of the interview, which is then viewable online in the OHMS Viewer, accessible from the archive's chosen content management system. OHMS was originally designed and created by the Louie B. Nunn Center for Oral History, University of Kentucky Libraries.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best,

Tamara

Hi Tamara,

We have the OHMS viewer integrated with our DSpace. However, we made quite some customization on DSpace to have that happen. I would like to provide more details if you are interested.

We host many Omeka sites too. Most of them are independent from DSpace. One site used to import metadata from DSpace but they recently converted back to standalone. I think they don't want to keep the two platforms sync anymore. Have you tried Omeka S?

Best,

Ying

Hello Ying,

I'm very interested in your experience with OHMS + DSpace. We have launched OHMS for our interview materials and we are working on it.

Hi Ying,

I would also be very interested in hearing more about your integration experiences with DSpace and Omeka. I've done some testing with the Omeka-S 'DSpace Connector' module  which has a few rough edges but it basically works (also assuming the module will eventually need some changes to accommodate the updated DSpace 7 REST API). 

In general I'm very curious to hear about use-cases where DSpace is being used as a backend data source for a different system, and Omeka S is of particular interest.

Thanks,

Carl
