Not to Wait is the Answer: Institutional Repositories from the Bottom-up Hussein Suleman University of Cape Town July 2004

Overview  Our Repository  Why we have a repository  Infrastructure Requirements  Policy Support Community building, Copyright, UCT/DoE Credit  Interoperability Protocol, Communities and Metadata  Migration  Statistics  Research, Future Plans

Our Repository  Author self-submission  Checking of submissions  Archive-everything!  UCT-CS-specific metadata and classification systems  Hierarchical browsing  Simple and fielded searching  OAI-PMH compliance

Open Access  If it can’t be found in Google …  1299 hits directly from Google in June  Example: ystem+UML ystem+UML Kritzinger, Pieter, Marshini Chetty, Jesse Landman, Michael Marconi and Oksana Ryndina (2003) ChattaBox: A Case Study in Using UML and SDL for Engineering Concurrent Communicating Software Systems. In Proceedings Southern African Telecommunications Networks and Applications Conference, George, South Africa.

Why we have a repository  It was faster than simply waiting!  CS departments internationally archive technical reports (NCSTRL).  Research websites don’t last long (enough).  UCT doesn’t have an ETD project yet.  We need to improve ACCESS to our work.  We need to preserve our research output.  Bureaucracy (UCT, NRF, DoE, etc.) requires tracking publications.  We (think we) know what we are doing.

What we archive  Books and Book Chapters  Conference Paper and Posters  Journals (online and paginated)  Newspaper and Magazine Articles  Preprints  Presentation Slides  Conference Proceedings  Departmental Technical Reports  Electronic Theses and Dissertations  Other Stuff …

Infrastructure Requirements  Software: EPrints v2.2.1 plus a few changes here and there.  Server: Tacked onto an existing machine! 2GHz Pentium/512MB/40GB  Operating System: FreeBSD 5.0  Web server: Apache v1.3.7  Administrator: shared with other systems …

Community Building  Filling the archive: Get official support. Twist arms of staff. Fill archive with own publications to make others look bad. Twist arms of staff even harder. Get (student) researchers to twist student arms. “The domino effect”.

Copyright

Metadata/Citation Rendering

Academic Overview of Research

NRF / DoE Credit  We already have a departmental listing of all research output.  Where copyright does not allow, we include just a citation – no files – for completeness.

Interoperability  Our archive is compliant with Open Archives Initiative’s Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) v2.0.  Metadata can be freely harvested by any service provider.  baseURL:

Communities and Metadata  Participate in OAI: Metadata can be in Dublin Core.  Participate in NDLTD: Metadata can be in ETDMS. Set for theses and dissertations only.  Participate in NCSTRL: Metadata can be in RFC1807. Set for technical reports only. OAI-PMH Request:  dataPrefix=oai_rfc1807&set= D F7274

Statistics 1/2  Unique IP address accesses

Statistics 2/2  Unique resource file (.pdf) accesses

Migration  is the “public view”  is the actual server.  Apache rewriting rules are used to proxy to the actual server.  Advantages: Migration is trivial - we can move the server and nobody will know. All resources have the most generic URL possible. The repository can be co-located with other projects.

Research  Import metadata/files into DSpace Student assignment to migrate metadata/content. Based completely on OAI-PMH interface. All 15 groups replicated basic EPrints functionality in DSpace with same data set.  Higher-level services to enhance basic services provided by EPrints. Ongoing work into component-based digital libraries…

Future Plans  Move to a dedicated server when the university decides it is important enough.  Link into an institutional repository system when it is set up.  Until such time, continue self-archiving in the belief that institutional repositories can be built “bottom-up”.  Do it on a small scale, reap the benefits and demonstrate the potential!
