Introduction
Harvesting with DSpace is performed using the OAI-PMH standard.
The OAI-PMH allows DSpace to collect metadata from other compliant repositories and provides metadata for other repositories to collect.
This enables the contents of the repository to be mirrored to other compliant systems very easily.
This metadata interoperability greatly enhances the visibility of the repository contents on the internet.
