[Imma Subirats]

Dear all,

We are pleased to announce that the customization of DSpace, AgriOcean
DSpace 1.0, is now available in source code at
<http://code.google.com/p/agriocean> with the option to customize the
lay-out and to adapt the configuration file to local requirements. For
institutions with limited IT support an easy-to-install version
(Windows-based) is available under Downloads on the same page. On AIMS
(Agricultural Information Management Standards) you can find a section
dedicated to AgriOcean DSpace with background information and support
material <http://aims.fao.org/tools/agriocean-dspace>.

AgriOcean DSpace is a joint initiative of FAO and UNESCO-IOC/IODE to
provide a customized version of DSpace. Its objective is to make
literature in digital form using standards for metadata, thesauri and
other controlled vocabularies commonly used in the field of
oceanography, agriculture and related sciences.

For further information on the customization please do not hesitate to
contact us at AIMS at fao.org. We will be happy to solve any doubts or
questions you may have.

Best regards

The AgriOcean DSpace Team
