[Dspace-general] Re: [Dspace-tech] Google and single Item

[Hickey,Thom]

Avoiding having to do this sort of thing is one reason we are doing DSpace
harvesting via OAI (http://www.oclc.org/research/projects/dspace/default.htm
<http://www.oclc.org/research/projects/dspace/default.htm> ).  If anyone
wishes to be added to the list of institutions harvested, please let
McKenzie know (celia.it is already on the list).

 

I have to admit we haven't been keeping this up-to-date, but if/when it
becomes important in providing access we could improve on that, and we will
be doing a reharvest soon.

Hi Daniella, 

This is because the item pages are generated dynamically from the
repository. Google only indexed static pages on the web. In order for Google
to find the items, you may either need to provide a static page to all the
items.. e.g. providing (submit to Google) a webpage containing hard coded
URLs for all single items pages.. I don't think Google is that intelligent
to find the item pages via the DSpace front-end.. (requires automatic search
of all possible items and indexes!).

Hi to all, 

I've a problem with google. 

Google finds the home page of my installation of DSpace
(http://dspace-unipr.cilea.it:8080/index.jsp), 

but it can't find single items, for example
http://dspace-unipr.cilea.it:8080/handle/1889/62 

If I insert, for example, the title of this item in the search bar, Google
finds other related pages but not the page of the item in dspace. 

Any idea? 

Thanks in advance 

Daniela
