Booklet: DSpace How-To Guide: Tips and tricks for managing common DSpace chores

Abstract:
This short booklet is intended to introduce the commonest non-obvious customization-related tasks for newcomers to DSpace administration. It has been written against the stable version 1.4.2 of DSpace and Manakin 1.1. We have tried to include instructions for different operating systems as required; most customizations, however, work identically cross-platform. This booklet was created as a handout for the tutorial "Making DSpace Your Own", at the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) 2007 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
The introduction states:
