Hello,
At our institute we are considering librecat as an option for our
data/publication repository and publication database. It is my
understanding that 'PUB' is both a repository (publications and data)
and publications database. Currently we have a combination of
applications providing this functionality, an Eprints application as a
publications repository, another Eprints application as a data
repository and a Bibapp application as a publications database. We are
searching for something that can consolidate this suite into one
application.
I am quite new to library technologies and have some questions about
librecat that I hope someone can help me with. From the documentation I
can see that it is quite customizable but I would like some opinion on
how possible you think it would be to modify librecat to achieve the
following features.
_user groups_
At our institute we organize our students into groups under a post doc.
Our publication database must be able to reflect this by having group
organization. A user must be added to a group and publications must be
organizable and viewable by group and by individual.
_imports from external databases_
We must be able to import the previous publications of people at the
institute from external publication databases, such as Scopus, CrossRef,
ORCID.
_large data files_
How is librecat at handling large files? lets say a 5gb research data file?
Some words on the above would be greatly appreciated.
