Here's 74 sites which claim to use DSpace 4.x or above: http://www.duraspace.org/registry/dspace?order=field_dspace_version&sort=asc&f[0]=field_dspace_version%3A133
Again though, it is important to understand that coverage in Google Scholar and other search engines depends on several things: (1) A later version of DSpace can help (2) Ensuring your robots.txt doesn't accidentally block Google Spiders (3) Enabling the "sitemaps" feature in DSpace can help as well So, the extent that any particular site has good coverage in Google Scholar can depend on whether they've got DSpace configured well for Search Engine Optimization (SEO). We have some basic SEO recommendations here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC4x/Search+Engine+Optimization As Bram notes too, searching by "filetype" in Google Scholar doesn't seem to be a documented option (it's also not available in the advanced search screen for Google Scholar, and not in the documentation). So, that makes me wonder whether it fully behaves properly yet, or if it's still a work in progress. In other words, would even a *non-DSpace* site show this same behavior, where searching by "filetype" may only return a small subset of results? (I don't know the answer, just thinking outloud) - Tim On 7/21/2014 2:53 PM, Manuela Klanovicz Ferreira wrote: > Do you have an example of repository that uses DSpace 4.0 or above? > > I searched for one at Dspace page > (http://www.duraspace.org/registry/dspace?search_fulltext=&page=86&order=field_dspace_version&sort=asc) > but I found UFRGS = 4.0 and it's wrong, UFRGS uses DSpace 1.8.1. > > Thank you > > -----Mensagem original----- > De: Tim Donohue [mailto:tdono...@duraspace.org] > Enviada em: segunda-feira, 21 de julho de 2014 15:32 > Para: Manuela Klanovicz Ferreira; dspace-t...@lists.sourceforge.net; > dspace-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > Assunto: Re: [Dspace-devel] Search using filetype:pdf at Google Scholar > returns less results > > Hi Manuela, > > Unfortunately, offhand, Google Scholar may have the best answer to this > question (as they may be able to point at exactly what is wrong in your > scenario).
