Reports
DC files for items in each Progress Report supplied by Rob Wolfe's metadata team and bitstreams consisting of PDF's and .tiff files were scanned and produced by Document Services.
Steps to create and submit Research Library For Electronic SIPs:
1. Create new collection and administrative and permissions for current Progress Report using dspace.mit.edu web interface. As it stands now, creating the collection and assigning permissions is probably the most time-consuming part of the process. I looked into possibility for automating the collection creation process, but unfortunately there are no dspace utilities that do quite what we need at this time.
2. Run ruby script, rle.rb , to clean SIP directory: 'rle.rb -c' ( clean up files from preceding collection load )
3. Create new SIPs for specified collection: 'rle.rb -d 081' (create new SIPs for Report 081)
4. Check hard drive /Volumes/MyBook/RLE/sip
...
directory
...
to
...
make
...
sure new content is there
5. secure copy newly created SIPs to dspace /home/carlj/upload
...
directory:
...
scp -R
...
-c
...
*
...
dspace.mit.edu:upload/

it

make sure year and report number are correct
9. Run rle_import.sh

in

'real'

mode:

e.g.

/home/carlj/bin/rle_import.sh

- Wait for ItemImport to finish (depends on how many items to load in each report)
- If ItemImport stops with an error – usually because of the assetstore file creation issues (see Alex Brennan for more information) -- then 'resume' the load with rle_resume.sh script one or more times: /home/carlj/bin/rle_resume.sh

-u

Refresh

current

collection

page

and
...
check

to

see

that
...
the

new

items

look

OK;
...
collection

name

is

spelled

correctly,

correct

year,

etc.
...
Check at least one item (click and navigate through brief and full metadata display screens, view a .pdf). For example, Progress Report No. 081 (1966): http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/55434

Summing up,
...
it
...
takes
...
approximately
...
15
...
(no
...
resume
...
operations)
...
to 20+ (if
...
we
...
need
...
to
...
run
...
rle_resume.sh)
...
minutes
...
per
...
collection.
...
I
...
think
...
a
...
reasonable
...
average,
...
then,
...
of
...
20
...
minutes
...
per
...
report
...
is
...
about
...
right.
