The “Beyond DSpace 7” Tutorial aims to introduce the latest version of the DSpace platform to the audience and discuss the features particularly relevant in the context of the Open Science FAIR. Repository managers and Open Science officers will find it useful to have updated information about the status of the most adopted open-source repository platform worldwide, and how it enables FAIR principles. The first part of the tutorial will provide a general overview of the DSpace 7 architecture and showcase its basic features, then it will go deeper into interoperability aspects relevant to reach the FAIR goals. DSpace 7.6, the most recent version at the time of the workshop, is expected to support the FAIR Signposting Profile with minimal configuration. The audience will be instructed about how to enable and check the features. In the second part, the status of the COAR Notify implementation in DSpace 7 is presented. The COAR Notify project funded the implementation of the protocol in DSpace to be available out-of-box in DSpace 8 and as a patch for DSpace 7 users. At the time of the workshop the implementation phase of the project will be over, and the pilot phase underway. A patch will be available for DSpace 7.6 for those who cannot wait to have it implemented out-of-box in DSpace 8. Early adopters will be encouraged to provide feedback to the community. The Notify protocol implementation in DSpace will be showcased exploring some of the scenarios that it will enable such as integration with overlay journal platforms, open peer-review services and crosslinking among publications and data repositories.
