Purpose

Vireo allows administrative Managers to configure one or more repositories as destinations for published ETDs.   This area is provides technical specifications for publishing. 

...

The type of IT protocol used to transfer the document(s) from Vireo to the repository. Note: The chosen protocol will affect the meaning/encoding of other fields in this window, such as Repository location. Because Texas Digital Library member installations use the SWORD protocol, the remainder of the definitions here will refer to deposit locations utilizing SWORDv1.

If using DSpace 1.8 or higher you need to specify the SWORD version1 webapp. Vireo does not support SWORD version2 at this time.

Format

The metadata schema to be used in the deposit. For SWORD deposits into DSpace, this format must be configured to be available in DSpace; therefore, it is recommended that DSpaceMETS is chosen.

...

The URL of the deposit location.  If using SWORD, this URL should be for the Service Document that describes the repository’s SWORD interface.
