•
•
•
•
•
Theoretical, i.e. text-type „main“ work – type A
Play, script (text- type, but not the „main“ one) – type B
Film, video – type C
Interpretation performance – type D
Composition – type E
For each type:
• separate form
• created a SEPARATE metadata record

Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2. Building of the repository
• Internal and external legislation
• Selection of types of files to be made
accessible
• Selection of SW for the repository and its
modification
• Workflow
9
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.1 Building of the repository – legislation
External legislation
Act No. 111/1998, § 47b – the amendment prescribes
obligatory publishing of ETDs:
• AMU Rector’s Decree No. 2/2006 - On publishing final works at
AMU
• AMU Rector’s Decree No. 3/2006 – Methodology of processing,
storage and making the ETDs accessible
• AMU Rector’s Decree No. 4/2006 – Directive on creation and
formal layout of ETDs
• Aspect of copyright
• Descriptive metadata – standard MS-EVSKP (electronic theses)
• Standards of the bibliographic description (library)
10
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.1 Building of the repository – legislation
Internal legislation
Aspect of copyright :
• AMU enters into licence agreements with authors
• There are various degrees defined.
• The author provides rights for a specific work
• The rights are provided at the moment of submitting the
work to the information system (KOS)
• The author has the right the reject access to his work –
then the work will be only archived
• Specific rights provided are also displayed in the
repository
11
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.1 Building of the repository – legislation
Other aspects – internal regulations of AMU
- Library catalogue is the entry point for users
- The system must offer:
• exports to the library catalogue as well
• links from the catalogue to the repository
• search of information about related documents
• comfort for the „non-standard“ users
- Te text work is „superior“ over other works although it is
not decisive for the qualification
- Hierarchy of records (mother, daughter)
- Completion of the metadata and the bibliographic
description
12
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.2 Selection of suitable SW
In 2008 the DSpace system adopted
Advantages:
• Not costly (open source)
• Easy installation and administration, modifications, localisation
• Support of standards (XML, DC, METS...)
• Support of interoperability – OAI-PHM server
• It supports free as well as secured access (LDAP, …)
• Efficient search mechanism, as well as full text
• AMU is not the only university participating, there are also many
other universities (web, meeting of VŠB TUO,...)
Perzistent identifier - Handle
13
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.3 Workflow
Workflow metadata
• Starting point for the collection – Studies information system
– KOS
• Export of the metadata, creation of a record in Dspace
• Assignment of the persistent identifier Handle
• Export to Tinlib
• Completion of the subject description in Tinlib (subject
categories, key words, …) - librarians
• Adding (import) of the subject description to Dspace
• Making it accessible for harvesting (currently for theses.cz MU)
14
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.3 Workflow – selection of formats
Formats of digitalised documents
„VIEW“ FORMATS:
• Text, static image and
combined documents
• Sound documents
• Video records
PDF/A-1a
mp3
flv, 720 x 576px D1-PAL, 1500 kbps
Full versions of the non-text works will be available at the departments
The selection of the formats changes – i.e. Decree of the Government of
the Czech Republic No. 1338, of 3 November 2008
15
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
2.3 Workflow
Workflow of full texts (in cooperation with
the Czech Technical University in Prague)
• Conversion of full texts to the defined formats:
• texts, static images – PDF/A-1a - (standardisation necessary
for full text search)
• tool: print2pdf – S602
• Audio – mp3 – it is not a problem
• Video – FLV – a problem in general, but AMU tries to consider whether to
use it, FAMU does not want to accept it
“YouTube” - we follow the trends
• Upload to Dspace – currently manually
• Making the works accessible in accordance with the licence
agreement in Dspace
Full versions are not provided outside the AMU
16
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
3. Modification of the Dspace repository:
• Structure of the metadata
• Links between the existing records
• Extraction for the full text search (pdf)
• Other modifications (layout, ...)
17

19
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
3.2 Modification of Dspace – links among related records
There are several possibilities :
- To create a virtual object – “final part of the studies”, a
fictious record, URI and to link related objects to it
- To use the relations “superior” / “subordinate”
work “has a part / is a part of“

4. Connection of the repository to its environment
Cooperation with other systems
• Interoperability – OAI-PMH
• Modifications for the Tinlib library system
• Making the metadata accessible for other
harvesters
29
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
4.1 Interoperability - OAI PMH
Harvesting (curently) for „theses.cz“ (MU)
Dspace has its own OAI server (support of the OAIPMH protocol) which secures displaying of the
metadata retrieved in Dublin core
• Java plugin was modified to ensure processing of the
metadata added (MS eVSKP)
• The modification is in the permanent part of the code,
it will not be affected by any other upgrades
30
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
4.2 Modifications for Tinlib
XML file retrieved by export from Dspace is converted by
means of XML /XLST technology (+processor SAXON)
to an import file for Tinlib
Based on the value of the element worktype
<dcvalue element="worktype" qualifier="none">A</dcvalue>

And what to do next :
In cooperation with the ETDs Working Group and the
Dspace community :
- Terminology
- Archiving – the technical part
- The Relations to be incorporated into the metadata
standard MS-EVSKP
Dspace community:
- Acces rights – structure
- Displaying hierarchy of records
42
Brno 21. 10. 2009: Systémy pro zpřístupňování eVŠKP 2009
Terminology
Issues to be discussed
For NON-TEXTS – FULL VERSIONS?:
• Creative artistic activity
• Work of art
• Practical part
and so on.
For the WHOLE:
• Qualification performance
• Assignment for the final work (ETDs)
Will these records be of interests for
theses.cz ?
