• Resumen

  • The release of DSpace 5 has made batch importing of zipped Simple Archive Format (SAF) directories via the online user interface a possibility. This improved functionality supports a repository administrator's ability to perform batch ingest operations by removing the need to utilize the command-line, but staging large collections for ingest can be time consuming. Additionally, the SAF specification does not lend itself to an efficient desktop workflow. We describe a lightweight and easily adopted Python workflow for packaging heterogeneous collections in Simple Archive Format for batch ingest into DSpace.
