TDL DSpace Users Group
Purpose of the group: The TDL DSpace Users Group (DUG) works to create an active community among DSpace users that:
- facilitates mutual support for DSpace use and repository management;
- identifies areas of work that could be taken on by member working groups or by TDL staff;
- connects the TDL DSpace user community to the larger open source DSpace community in North America.
Who can join:
- Membership in the DSpace Users Group is open to users affiliated with TDL member institutions who have a role in managing their DSpace repository.
- Any users of DSpace, regardless of TDL membership, may attend user group meetings and join the DSpace Users Group email list.
How to get involved:
- Subscribe to the TDL DSpace Users Group Email List. The list is used for discussion of DSpace and repository management issues and for sharing announcements from TDL and the DUG.
