Dear friends,

Which software is good for a college library to develop a digital library? Greenstone or Dspace? 

Thanks in advance

D space

can we, librarians can customize it?

Dspace is best for your Digital Library

With kind regards

My views are as follows

If the Digital resources are already available, and bulk, which are not updated, or need not uploaded regularly, Greenstone is better.

If the digital resources are to be updated, or to be uploaded regularly  (even in daily basis), Dspace is better.

For Institutional Repository, Dspace is better

If the institution is having the intranet email system, dspace is better, as the information will flow to user, author automatically.

In the latest version of both the software ( Greenstone 2.85 / Dspace 3.1 ), if the metadata is in Excel format, which can be sorted, corrected, updated and , batch import is very easy. so that bulk data base can be loaded in both the software.

If any body need any help, in batch import (Bulk loading) from excel metadata in both the software, they can contact me by email.

Does any one has compared the precision measure of both the software? I feel the for full text indexing GSDL has much more precision than DSpace including Indic Languages.

Thanks to all for your valuable reply...

GOOD AFTER NOR NEED GREEN STONE AND DSPACE
