What is GNU EPrints 2? Creates Online Archive Free Software OAI Compliant Targeted at Scholarly Material Adaptable Extendable

What is an EPrint? System Metadata Eprint ID Number Deposit date Archive Metadata Title Year Authors Zero or more Documents (PDF, HTML etc.)

How much will it cost? Free? Still need hardware & staff Not just $0.00 Not free as in lunch, but free as in Willy

Hardware Machine running UNIX (eg. Linux) 512M+ RAM 20Gb+ of disk space Remember to budget for backups! A demo version could run on a much smaller machine than this.

Staff Costs 2 or 3 days of UNIX admin? A few hours of UNIX admin each configuration change Months to be ready, need the admin on-and-off Data Entry can be expensive and error-prone Low long-term costs are much lower Support to teach staff to enter their own records 2 – 3 minutes to approve/reject each record

Design Philosophy Its never going to be perfect! Default is a good starting point Will need some changes EPrints is configurable rather than perfect out of the box Possible to build new tools & views

Technology Any UNIX-like OS Developed under RedHats GNU/Linux distro. Written in PERL Not very efficient in terms of RAM Allows rapid development and modification XML for import, export and parts of the configuration Apache and mod_perl MySQL database

Internationalisation Core Design Issue XML Phrase File for easy translation Multilanguage support Uses UTF-8 encoding throughout (Unicode) Option of Multilingual Metadata

Other Features OAI 1.1 and 2.0 support Metadata search Subscriptions Export metadata as XML
