Another advantage of DSpace is its structure: it gave us the flexibility to organise our
repository collections according to the University’s faculty/departmental structure.
This has meant that each department has its own area on the repository, which has
given departments a sense of ownership of the system. This has proved to be a very
important factor when demonstrating the service. It also means that departments or
research institutes can link directly from their websites to their staff publications on
the repository. Figure 2 shows an example of this link from the website at the
Ergonomics and Safety Research Institute (ESRI) and Figure 3 shows the ESRI area
within the IR.
