<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">A few months ago there was some
discussion regarding Google harvesting information from DigiTool – so here is a
short update. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The official Google statement stated
that Google supports harvesting using OAI-PMH and as DigiTool can serve as an
OAI-PMH provider we assumed that harvesting by Google is possible. After a few
attempts, and a few discussions with Google (we should thank CJH for doing the
effort) we got a clear message that OAI-PMH harvesting is no longer supported
and customers should use the standard map site required by Google (personally,
I’m not sure if OAI-PMH was ever supported).<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">As this is the situation, we are
working on an enhancement that will allow Google to harvest DigiTool using a
site map as required by Google. We have done a few internal testing in the last
few weeks and the results are satisfactory. We plan to implement this
enhancement at a few sites that have requested just after SP20 and the
enhancement will be included in SP21. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
