[zubair@cs.odu.edu]

The Digital Library Research Group at Old Dominion University in
collaboration with the Research Library of the Los Alamos National
Laboratory is pleased to announce an alpha version of the OAI harvester
plug-in, which can ingest metadata, as well as full text, from  OAI-PMH 2.0
compliant data providers to DSpace* with some pre-specified mapping. Once
harvested, the records can be retrieved using Dspace standard search
interface. The mapping of OAI_DC metadata to Dspace can be specified using
a XML template. The plug-in is available at
