  • How do I get indexed by Google Scholar?

Google Scholar crawls and indexes scholarly publications. You need not register your journal with Google Scholar. It will automatically crawl your website. It identifies scholarly content and determines each item’s bibliographic metadata.

If you notice that your journal is not appearing in Google Scholar, there may be some issues that need to be addressed.

Google Scholar relies on two key pieces of information in order to do its indexing:

  1. A way to crawl all the URLs or essentially links for articles, either via a crawler-friendly browse (set up by default for OJS instances), or a sitemap.
  2. Bibliographic information from articles in the form of metatags. These metatags are derived from the information you add to the forms in OJS to describe your journal, issues, and submissions.

Some common indexing problems

  • Incorrect publication dates listed in metatags
  • Mixing up multiple languages or scripts in metatags
  • Language of metadata (especially title and abstract) in different language than the language of the article full text
  • Author name formatting discrepancies between metadata and galley (e.g. Given Name and Family Name format and capitalization).
  • Authors listed in a different order in metatags than the author order in the gallery

Fixation suggestion

  • Check publication date consistency
  • Match the publication date of the issue, as well as the publication date listed on the article PDF. Inspect citation date.
  • Use only one language in each metadata tag, and don’t reproduce duplicate metadata in different languages/scripts across multiple metatags
  • Use the full-text language in the metadata tags
  • Adding multilingual metadata in OJS 3.2
  • Ensure that authors’ names are formatted consistently
