We have an instance (1.8, JSPUI) where some communities/collections are
restricted, which may pose a problem in terms of registering with Google
Scholar, I read through their guidelines at
http://scholar.google.com/intl/en-US/scholar/inclusion.html.
<http://scholar.google.com/intl/en-US/scholar/inclusion.html>
The restrictions we have in place are IP based. So if GoogleBot comes by
an AuthorizationException is triggered and I assume the JSPUI returns
the appropriate HTTP code. We do have a collection where users have to
consent with an Agreement - but these are hiding behind the IP
restrictions, so a GoogleBot would never even get there.
The guidelines indicate that Google Scholar does not want to see login
pages or popups, but it sounds to me that they are OK with HTTP 4xx codes.
If that is true we should be fine. Are we ?
