Apologies for duplication, and please forward/repost as appropriate...
We are working on comparing four digital-repository software packages
(DSpace, ePrints, Fedora, and Zentity) in hopes of helping libraries
and other institutions select the most appropriate software for their
requirements. Read more about our project at
http://blogs.lib.purdue.edu/rep/ .
We invite anyone who has recently embarked upon planning for a digital
repository to tell us what criteria were used to select a software
package. (We are not interested in hosted repository services at this
time, only repositories managed in-house.) Your input will inform our
testing criteria.
Please leave your comments at
http://blogs.lib.purdue.edu/rep/2010/02/25/a-comparative-analysis-of-institutional-repository-software/
. Pointers to public planning documents or lists of criteria are
equally welcome. Though we will read all comments submitted, we plan
to respond only by private email so as not to bias the public
comment-stream.
We very much appreciate your assistance!
Siddharth Singh, Michael Witt, and Dorothea Salo
