Hi, As of DSpace 1.7.0 (released Dec 2010), DSpace ships with Google Scholar recommended metadata enabled out-of-the-box. So, if you are not running 1.7.0 or above, I'd recommend upgrading your DSpace in order to see improvements in Google Scholar indexing.
For that 1.7.0 release, DSpace developers at MIT actually worked directly with the technology lead for Google Scholar to ensure DSpace content could be more discoverable via Google Scholar. However, it is worth noting that institutions may need to modify the configuration of the DSpace Google Scholar "mappings" if they have customized their local DSpace metadata schema in any way. Those instructions are in our DSpace Documentation at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/Google+Scholar+Metadata+Mappings DSpace also provides general hints/tips on ensuring that your institutions' DSpace installation is indexed/discoverable via Google (and other search engines) in general. Many of these tips were actually written/provided by Robert Tansley at Google (initial creator of DSpace). https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Ensuring+your+instance+is+indexed Hopefully that will help, - Tim On 4/5/2012 11:05 PM, revskill wrote: > Hi everybody.
