Maurizio has already answered. Those links were just a place to start.

For Plone 2.x this is a matter of creating appropriate Archetypes
products IMVHO. I have not tried Plone 3 yet.

I believe each institution will have a (sligthly) different structure.
You may get away with using default Folders and Pages and enforcing
a policy, instead of customizing products. The latter is not rocket
science, but it takes time to get it right.
