1. BY THE “DIGITAL UNDERGROUND ” DSpace Workflow & Tutorials for the Backyard Botanicals Collection

2. What can be Submitted & Who Can Submit? Over a two month period each member of the Backyard Botanicals group has taken up to five digital photographs of plant species found throughout Ohio and Eastern Pennsylvania. Each photograph shows a common variety of plant life that may be of interest to any amateur botanist or a local gardening club. The collection is meant to fill the gap in the existing digital collections geared for botanical enthusiasts while also providing information which might be found useful by the aforesaid groups.

3. What can be Submitted & Who Can Submit? While this collection is geared towards and focused to a gardening club, only members of Backyard Botanicals will have permission to upload digital photographs to the collection. Any users of this collection may choose to join the Backyard Botanicals group and upload their own photographs to the collection. Only those photographs taken by the group members depicting common plant varieties will be accepted for submission into this collection.

4. WorKflow Roles Submitter, Reviewer, Coordinator, & Metadata Editor  Once an item is submitted it will move onto the reviewer, coordinator, & metadata editor.  The reviewer can review all content of files and either accept or reject the submission. If it is accepted it moves to the next step; if rejected the file gets sent back.  The coordinator can accept or reject all submission made as well as edit all metadata. Accepting the file moves it onto the next step; rejection stops it.  The metadata editor can edited all metadata in all files. Approval for submissions has already happened when the file gets to this point, therefore an accept at this point submits the file to Dspace.

5. Workflow Steps in DSpace Dspace has three available workflow steps  Accept/Reject  Accept/Reject/Edit Metadata  Edit Metadata  Any three of the workflows can be used; each workflow is worked through in order For the Backyard Botanicals Collection the Accept/Reject/ Edit Metadata workflow was chosen

6. Workflow Administrators The entire Digital Underground group are set as the administrators for the workflow. This was due to time restraints. Each member has the ability to take a task, once an item has been submitted, as well as approve/reject any step in the work flow. This also includes the ability to edit metadata.
