Abstract(s)
The RCAAP network, crucial for promoting Open Science in Portugal, includes the Institutional Repository Hosting Service (SARI), which hosts 28 repositories. Facing the challenge of migrating from DSpace 5.x to DSpace 7.x, the process unfolded in phases. The creation of DSpace 7++, incorporating additional integrations, marked the initial step. A pilot project involving two institutions refined the migration process. With a focus on improved user interfaces, recent technologies, customization, and new integrations, DSpace 7.x was chosen. Despite compromises and acknowledged usability issues, the migration aimed to align with the community's needs. The ongoing evolution prioritizes aspects adding value to what DSpace delivers within the broader scientific ecosystem. Notably, lessons learned emphasize the significance of constant improvement and prioritization of features aligned with community needs.
