DSpace

8 March 2004 | EN

DSpace is a groundbreaking digital library system to capture, store, index, preserve, and redistribute the intellectual output of a university's research faculty in digital formats. Developed jointly by MIT Libraries and Hewlett-Packard (HP), it is freely available to research institutions worldwide as an open-source system that can be customised and extended. DSpace software manages and distributes digital items, made up of digital files (or bitstreams) and allows the creation, indexing, and searching of associated metadata to locate and retrieve the items.
