Your DSpaceDirect repository is online and web accessible as soon as you sign up for an account. That way you can add content and provide immediate access to your users, wherever they happen to be located.  DSpaceDirect is integrated with the DuraCloud service which provides DSpaceDirect users with a back-up copy of their content. In addition, DuraCloud performs regular health checks on stored content that are necessary to detect if content has experienced integrity issues as it has been stored in the cloud. This process ensures that a file remains the same over time.  Additionally, DSpaceDirect offers “You-Pick Features” designed to ensure your brand is communicated through your repository.  With so many features, DSpaceDirect puts solutions for long-term access to digital scholarly assets within reach of institutions of any size all at a price you can afford (http://dspacedirect.org/interested).

Bennington College Digital Repository, Bennington College

Bennington College needed a solution with built-in technical support for storing and making student's electronic theses and dissertations along with a collection of scanned high quality images and film. DSpaceDirect is a good solution, says Oceana Wilson, Director of Library and Information Services Crossett Library, “We have a small staff and don't have an archivist. Keeping up with archival records is an ongoing challenge. There is an interest within the campus community to access the archive as as well as external audiences, such as scholars of modern dance history.  By making our archive accessible we boost archival access for researchers on and off campus. Our records can be found on the Web with DSpace.”
