Get data into dspace
https://docs.rc.uab.edu/
Please use the new documentation url https://docs.rc.uab.edu/ for all Research Computing documentation needs.
As a result of this move, we have deprecated use of this wiki for documentation. We are providing read-only access to the content to facilitate migration of bookmarks and to serve as an historical record. All content updates should be made at the new documentation site. The original wiki will not receive further updates.
Thank you,
The Research Computing Team

Once you have an account, you can import individual items using the wizard on the dspace.uabgrid.uab.edu site.
bulk import web page
- connect to the dspacestage smb share
- make a copy of the templateImport directory
- make a directory for each item (see item1 dir example)
- copy files for each item into their directories
- for each item edit dublin_core.xml and enter correct values
- contents file is just a list of files without contents or dublin_core.xml (i.e. ls -1 > contents, then delete the lines for those two files)
- then delete the readme.txt file and the item1 example folder and upload using http://dspace.uabgrid.uab.edu/import/submititems.php
