  Vincenzo D’Aguanno –University of Cassino and Southern Latium Libraries and IRIS IRIS - Definition IRIS (Institutional Research Information System) belongs to the family of software internationally defined as CRIS (Current Research Information System). These systems allow management and dissemination of research data activity.

  Vincenzo D’Aguanno –University of Cassino and Southern Latium Libraries and IRIS • As part of IRIS a specific management typology is active, defined as IR /OA – Institutional Repository / Research Opena Archive; • The module is implemented through the use of Dspace (www.dspace.org)
• 5.
  Vincenzo D’Aguanno –University of Cassino and Southern Latium Libraries and IRIS • DSpace is an open source software, which allows an easy and open access to any type of digital content (text, images, movies, data sets, etc ...). In Dspace workflow there are three main stages: • Data entry by author; • Data handling and storage by collection editor; • Data research and use by Catalogue user.

  Vincenzo D’Aguanno –University of Cassino and Southern Latium Libraries and IRIS Validation inDSpace workflow • DSpace allows the activation of a maximum of three successive validation moments
• 7.
  Vincenzo D’Aguanno –University of Cassino and Southern Latium Libraries and IRIS Validation in IRIS workflow - 1 • IRIS uses step 2 of DSpace in its validation flow; • Step 2 allows three actions: • Modification and integration of metadata entered by the author (you still can’t modify the product uploaded); • Acceptance and adding the product to Catalogue; • Product return to the author (eg. in case of inconsistencies between the product uloaded and thebibliographic description entered by the author).

  Vincenzo D’Aguanno –University of Cassino and Southern Latium Libraries and IRIS Validation in IRIS workflow - 2 • In a situation of "validation ACTIVE" (to be configured at the system level), at the moment when an author complete his insertion of a product on their "Desktop of products", the item is sent to the validation process; • As part of the validation process, it’s performed a control about quality of data and its suitability for the publication on the public portal.
