-------------------------------
Summary: Add a way for harvesters to find recently added items
(request from Google)
Key: DS-1482
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1482
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Tim Donohue
This request came out of a discussion I had with Anurag Acharya and Darcy Darpa
at Google / Google Scholar.
Anurag mentioned that often the Google harvesters seem to need to do a lot of
"paging / clicking" in order to find new items in a DSpace instance. This can
cause both a performance hit in DSpace (as the crawler keeps requesting pages),
and also can result in delays where items may not appear in Google for some
time (if the crawler gives up or moves on before it ever finds the item).
Anurag mentioned that it'd be much easier (both on DSpace performance and on
the Google crawlers), if DSpace provided some way to easily locate recently
added items.
This could be something like a "Browse Recently Added Items" (i.e. browse by
dc.date.accessioned), or similar. It was noted that EPrints has such a feature
(called "Latest Additions"). For example, see their demo site:
