Hi

The ordering of the titles is done by the class org.dspace.sort.OrderFormatTitleMarc21.java
defined in dspace.cfg

plugin.named.org.dspace.sort.OrderFormatDelegate= \
        org.dspace.sort.OrderFormatTitleMarc21=title

A new class that meets your expectations should be implemented and used at configuration file.

Regards

Adán

Hi,

Finnish alphabet is same as English alphabet except it has three additional letters å, ä and ö. In Finnish alphabetical order these letters are considered as the three last letters of the alphabet so the last six letters of Finnish alphabet are "xyzåäö". DSpace normalizes å and ä as a and ö as o. This leads to undesired alphabetical sort order in DSpace. How could we implement proper Finnish alphabetical sorting in DSpace? We are currently using DSpace 7.5. In Solr, it would seem that sorting of Finnish characters does not happen, at least in our case. This is imminent when we open any collection, and then attempt to browse by title.

To recreate this issue, on a vanilla installation of dspace, we first create 7 test entries inside of a collection with the following titles. When browsed by title in an ascending form, the items are returned in the following order:

  * AABNER Forum Peer Review System
  * Aadam askeetti : Ihminen paratiisissa Johannes Damaskolaisen mukaan
  * AAI-profiler : fast proteome-wide exploratory analysis reveals
    taxonomic identity, misclassification and contamination
  * Äänen korkeuteen ja puhekieleen liittyvät taidot: teoriasta
    kuulovammaisten lasten kuntoutukseen
  * Ääniä opinto- ja uraohjauksen kansallisella kentällä – ohjauksen
    kehittämistä koskevien argumenttien analyysi
  * Aarne Michaël Tallgren, Estonia, and Tartu in 1920 : The image of
    a country in correspondence
  * The Aarhus Chamber Campaign on Highly Oxygenated Organic Molecules
    and Aerosols (ACCHA) : particle formation, organic acids, and
    dimer esters from alpha-pinene ozonolysis at different temperatures

However, the correct order should be :

  * AABNER Forum Peer Review System
  * AAI-profiler : fast proteome-wide exploratory analysis reveals
    taxonomic identity, misclassification and contamination
  * Aadam askeetti : Ihminen paratiisissa Johannes Damaskolaisen mukaan
  * Aarne Michaël Tallgren, Estonia, and Tartu in 1920 : The image of
    a country in correspondence
  * The Aarhus Chamber Campaign on Highly Oxygenated Organic Molecules
    and Aerosols (ACCHA) : particle formation, organic acids, and
    dimer esters from alpha-pinene ozonolysis at different temperatures
  * Äänen korkeuteen ja puhekieleen liittyvät taidot: teoriasta
    kuulovammaisten lasten kuntoutukseen
  * Ääniä opinto- ja uraohjauksen kansallisella kentällä – ohjauksen
    kehittämistä koskevien argumenttien analyysi

To try and mitigate this issue, we tried to change the schema.xml of the search core by explicitly creating a new fieldtype and specifying ICU Collation libraries:


    <fieldType name="titleSortType" class="solr.TextField"
    sortMissingLast="false" omitNorms="false">

          <analyzer>

              <tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/>

              <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>

              <!-- Use ICU Collation for Finnish sorting -->

              <analyzer type="index"
    class="org.apache.lucene.collation.ICUCollationKeyAnalyzer">

                   <param name="locale" value="fi" />

              </analyzer>

              <filter class="solr.TrimFilterFactory" />

          </analyzer>

      </fieldType>

And then specifying this to *_sort filed under fieldtype as:

    <dynamicField name="*_sort" type="titleSortType" indexed="true"
    stored="true" multiValued="false" omitNorms="true"/>


but this did not help.

Thanks and Regards,
Barunes
