  3. Before a person can deposit to DalSpace, s/he must register as a depositor and provide the DalSpace team with information about department affiliation and the type of item(s) to be deposited. There is more information about how to do this at: www.library.dal.ca/DalSpace/

  4. Once this information has been sent, a member of the DalSpace team will contact the newly registered depositor.

  5. The DalSpace team will set up the “Community” and the “Collections” within which a depositor has authorization to make deposits. • A Community will generally correspond to a Dalhousie academic or administrative unit. e.g. Faculty of Computer Science • Each Community will have “Collections.” As examples: Faculty Research & Publications, Image Collection, etc. • Deposits made to DalSpace must be entered into a “Collection” affiliated with a “Community.”

  6. When a member of a department/unit has been recognized as an authorized depositor, and the Community and Collection have been set up, the depositor can submit material to DalSpace as follows: Go to: http://www.libraries.dal.ca Click on the Collections link and then on the DalSpace link.
