Abstract: This paper deals with the practical experiences of establishing IIM Calcutta Institutional Repository using an open-source software DSpace. It will act as a user manual for professionals who want to develop their repository. From beginning to end, the whole process & steps have been divided into three core units. The 1st unit explains the requirement of hardware & software with their compatible versions & step-by-step commands for installing DSpace. The unit also shows the workflow of user interface customizations with their suitable script both in JSPUI & XMLUI mode. This unit has revealed the script for the complete outgoing email server configuration.
