Presented at the 8th International Conference on Open Repositories, July 8-12, 2013, Charlottetown, PEI, Canada.https://hdl.handle.net/10289/9429This presentation describes how we are adapting DSpace to build LERNZdb, a repository for storing and disseminating New Zealand freshwater quality data. While the original intention in this project was to build a database for individual measurements, the repository model turned out to be a very good starting point for meeting the requirements. This allowed us to re-use our DSpace expertise gained from working on institutional publications repositories. After a quick introduction to LERNZdb's aims, data and users, the main emphasis of this presentation is on our DSpace modifications.application/pdfapplication/pdfen© 2013 copyright with the authors.DSpacerepositoryfreshwater quality dataConference Contribution
