Discovering Content (cont.) Dear Mr. Schumacher Im a student at The Institute of Information Studies and Librarianship at the Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. For my digital libraries class, I chose your DSpace Digital Repository as my class final paper topic. I was delighted to find a lot of helpful information on your website which I have been studying thoroughly. Still, I have some remaining questions. I realize you must be busy, nevertheless would you please be willing to kindly answer my remaining questions, or provide me with any suggestion where to find more information? What is the way of the input into the system SUNY Digital Repository, its process and operations of input data processing (processing, demands on data formats, typology of the processed documents)? What are the demands on registrations for the users? Do you have any informations about SUNY DSpace own repository (data storage) or possibilities of archival data storage longevity? I may have overlooked a guide/informations about output and other services of the repository, the way of searching and the list of services for users and robots. I will be very grateful for any help. Thank you for your time, Ill be looking forward to hearing from you soon. Iva Hostickova
