DSpace Software Platform for Digital Repository of JINR Publications

The DSpace software platform was specifically designed to create modern open repositories in academic and educational environments. It is an open-source platform with rich functionality, making it an attractive tool for academic, non-profit and commercial organizations creating open digital repositories. DSpace is supported by a large community of developers and users from around the world, allowing researchers and scientists to publish their papers and data. In our work we consider the use of DSpace software for the JINR repository, which contains articles, preprints and other materials reflecting and facilitating to JINR research activities. A test prototype of the repository, the usage of entities and collections, support for English and Russian languages, schemes for obtaining metadata from external resources such as INSPIREHEP, eLIBRARY are presented. The setup of the DSpace platform and its adaptation to the tasks of the JINR institutional repository are also briefly described.
