Introduction:
A growing number of academic institutions in
today’s ever-changing world of technology and
information, seek to store documents in an online
and easily accessible digitized format.
The
institutional repositories are powerful systems
that allow institutions to store and maintain their
digital documents for interaction and collaboration
among users.

The Pharmacy Library has been completely
automated using i-tek management suite software
and has implemented RFID system for charging and
discharging available documents.
The present author has taken the initiative of
developing Institutional Repository of M. Pharm.
theses of two streams i.e. Pharmaceutics and
Pharmacology, out of the six streams offered by the
Institute, using DSpace to support the long term
preservation of the digital materials.

The Concept of Institutional Repository (IR)




Institutional Repository is a digital archive of the
intellectual output of an academic institution.
It makes the quality and breath of scholarship produced at
an institution accessible to others world wide over the
internet.
It is a set of services that an institution offers to the
members of its community for the management and
dissemination of digital material created by the institution
and its community members.
It is most essentially an organizational commitment to the
stewardship of the digital materials including long term
preservation.

Definitions

An Institutional Repository (IR) is “a digital
collection capturing and preserving the intellectual
output of a single or multi-university community.”

It consists of formally organized and managed
collections of digital content generated by faculty,
staff and students at an institution.

The content can be made available for integration
with on-campus library and course management
systems and also to colleagues and students at other
institutions, as well as to the general public.


Another definition of IR is that,
“it is a web-based database (repository) of scholarly
material, which is institutionally defined as opposed
to a subject-based repository, cumulative and
perpetual (a collection of record), open and
interoperable and thus collects, stores and
disseminates.”

DSpace (http://www.dspace.org) – What is it?



Hewlett-Packard Company (HP) awarded $1.8 million to
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Libraries in March 2000, for an 18-month collaboration
to build DSpace, a dynamic repository for the intellectual
output in digital format of multi-disciplinary research
organizations.
HP Labs and MIT Libraries released the system
worldwide on November 4, 2002, under the terms of the
Berkeley Standard Distribution (BSD) open source
license .
As an open source system, DSpace is now freely
available to other institutions to run as-is, or to modify
and extend as they require meeting local needs.

Why to use DSpace?
The reasons why to choose DSpace are;
1. DSpace is an open source technology platform
which can be customized or extend its capabilities.
2. DSpace is a service model for open access and/or
digital archiving for perpetual access.
3. DSpace is a platform to build an Institutional
Repository and the collections are searchable and
retrievable by the Web.
4. To make available institution-based scholarly
material in digital formats. The collections will be
open and interoperable .

Institutional Repository (IR) of BIP Library

Our institution is a center of learning where various
research activities are going on by the faculty members,
which needs proper archival storage for future access.

The outcome of research, proceedings of seminars,
conferences, theses, dissertations, project reports etcetera
will be kept in institutional repositories in digital form
and these information resources have to be uploaded to
DSpace collection on Intranet.

Now the author uploaded theses of two branches and a
few Ebooks.

 Above mentioned figures are the very first pages of
DSpace that appear after the completion of
installation.

Important locations are being pointed out in this
figure such as, header, location bar, navigation bar
and footer. From here actual work starts to publish
the digitized documents.

Before uploading the documents one should create
communities and collections. BIP library has created
some communities and have uploaded the relevant
documents.


Majority of DSpace
administrative tasks
must be performed
centrally, using the
administration user
interface, part of
the Web UI.

DSpace Workflow Steps Description



The DSpace submission workflow system is a critical part
of the DSpace architecture that allows submission,
processing and final addition of content to the live
repository.
DSpace’s underlying model which includes E-People, users
who have registered with the system and have certain
authorizations, roles, rights, and privileges that translate
abilities to complete certain tasks within the DSpace system.
A typical submission begins with the system asking the
user a couple of questions about digital document to be
added in the repository and number of files involved in the
submission. Then the system guides the user through the
different steps, which are outlined in the following.

Submission Procedures are as below:

process are complete. Based on the workflow steps set for the
collection, the item may immediately be added to the
collection or have to be reviewed by system administrators
before its addition to the collection

45
Last step: Disseminate: The items submitted and archived
into the DSpace digital library repository can be disseminated
and accessed by the users through search and browse.

Conclusion:
Institutional repositories are the face index of any institute which
reflects the status of its strength in the form of research productivity.
Therefore, importance should be given for the development of
Institutional repositories, for which librarians need to take positive
initiative to develop the scientific temper of the institution.
The DSpace is fairly powerful software. Institutions and users are
getting benefited by IR, which is a successful digital preservation tool.
The work of the IR at the BIP Library is still in the primary phase.
Efforts are being made to add more materials and made it accessible
all over the world ,so that the users of BITS edu campus, Babaria
Institute of Pharmacy will get benefited by the research output.
