Thanks for the information! Greenstone has full text search, but I heard that its access control is much weaker than DSpace. Will it be able to allow certain documents open only to certain people or certain departments? Thanks.

OK, that's not I typically think of when I hear "DRM". "Access control" is (I think) the way it's usually put. No, UpLib has no built-in access control system, though the hooks are there, and I know that some have used them to do access control. I know of one UpLib application which requires incoming connections to provide a client certificate, which it uses to give different clients different access rights. Probably overkill for most uses. You'd probably want to do an application-specific Web UI, though -- you could put the access restrictions there. I recently saw a Tomcat app which uses the UpLib Java client-side library to search for documents, then provided a completely custom UI. > On second thought, I searched for "DSpace full text search" and found > this: > https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Configure+full+text+indexing > However, I haven't seen any instance which shows the full text search > results as I would see from vendor databases. > > Any idea on what system might be good/best for search within documents and DRM? How about Greenstone? Bill
