As of DSpace 1.7, there is a mapping facility to connect Google metadata fields with the dublin core metadata citation fields in HTML.

In order to enable this functionality, the switch needs to be flipped in dspace.cfg:

google-metadata.enable = true

Once the feature is enabled, the mapping is configured by a separate configuration file located here:

[dspace]/config/crosswalks/google-metadata.properties

Sample HTML Metadata

Below is an example of the Google scholar metadata generated in the <head> tag of item: http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/79321 when viewing the page HTML source;

<meta content="http://scholar.sun.ac.za/handle/10019.1/79321" name="citation_abstract_html_url" />
<meta content="Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University" name="citation_publisher" />
<meta content="Institutional repository; DSpace; Open access publishing; Other" name="citation_keywords" />
<meta content="en_ZA" name="citation_language" />
<meta content="Gibson, H." name="citation_authors" />
<meta content="2012-01" name="citation_date" />
<meta content="Practical guidelines for starting an institutional repository using DSpace software" name="citation_title" />
