Demo of UTK’s new ETD submission module
- Submitters can freely edit their submission (metadata and files) until the submission is accepted. They can view their file versions and download their file.
- Submission manager can correspond with submitter through a messaging system. A log is kept as a datastream “MESSAGES”.
- ETDs will not appear until submitter has been awarded their degree.
- Joanne asks: Can you show where/who selects the embargo does the student set it within submission process or how is the thesis manager obtaining the embargo request dates?
  - Thesis or collection manager sets the embargo
- Will that be the same for faculty submissions?
  - TRACE administrators are responsible
- Things people really like: progress bar at the top of the form, the form is broken into multiple parts, email templates
- Don Richards: “We are planning to pipe some of this into the community module. Some of the logic is in our theme right now.”
  - Bryan expresses an interest in stealing
  - https://github.com/utkdigitalinitiatives/TRACE
