Google Scholar does not index our DSpace

[jjbeni...@gmail.com]

I have a problem with our institution's DSpace. 

https://repositorio.uci.cu/

Google Scholar is not indexing any content.

I have checked the sitemaps and robots.txt and it seems to be fine as does the metadata in the HTML headers

The only strange thing I see is that access to the bitstreams is restricted. Could this influence Google Schoolar not indexing anything on the site?

Hi there jjbenitez,

 

You might be right about the restrictions affecting the indexing. Google is very particular. Our repository, Mountain Scholar, wasn't being indexed either. We reached out to Google and discovered that we had so many metadata "errors," in the eyes of Google, that they had stopped indexing us altogether. We corrected the errors and now we're being indexed again. It was quite a process.

 

Best,
