Repositories
From TDL Wiki
General Information
With an Institutional Repository hosted by the TDL, your institution can collect, store, preserve, and disseminate digital content – including documents, audio files, images, and datasets – on secure TDL servers.
TDL digital repositories use DSpace, an open-source repository software that allows users to adapt submission workflows to the needs of various user groups. Works within a TDL-hosted Institutional Repository are indexed by commercial search engines, such as Google, and OAI-PMH harvesters such as OAIster. Users can also access materials via RSS feeds and a repository’s own search feature.

About DSpace an DSpace Manakin
Manakin is a customizable user interface developed at Texas A&M University, a TDL member institution, for use with the open-source digital repository software DSpace. Manakin enhances the DSpace platform by allowing organizational branding, metadata visualization, and look-and-feel changes both at the macro level and also at the level of individual communities, collections, and items. Released initally with DSpace version 1.4, Manakin became the default interface for DSpace 1.5, released in March 2008.
