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
