我们研究了设计一个通用的系统来建立机构知识库的问题。广泛使用的方案，如DSPACE，是为一组特定的要求量身定做的：固定的元数据集；搜索和浏览时的标准视图；存放项目的预定顺序；审查新项目的内置工作流程。相比之下，Fedora构建了灵活性：机构存储库只是一种可能的实例化--尽管通用性会带来很高的管理费用，而且吸收一直很慢。本文展示了如何重新利用Greenstone软件的现有组件，以提供介于这两个极端之间的通用机构存储库。
We examine the problem of designing a generalized system for building institutional repositories. Widely used schemes such as DSpace are tailored to a particular set of requirements: fixed metadata set; standard view when searching and browsing; pre-determined sequence for depositing items; built-in workflow for vetting new items. In contrast, Fedora builds in flexibility: institutional repositories are just one possible instantiation—however generality incurs a high overhead and uptake has been sluggish. This paper shows how existing components of the Greenstone software can be repurposed to provide a generalized institutional repository that falls between these extremes.
