[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Google, etc indexing and searching

[Flanagan, Patrick]

Good afternoon,

I'm relaying a question by a member of the Keystone Library Network in regards to how data in ArchivesSpace is crawled and indexed by search engines (Google, Yahoo, et. al)

"Are AS records searchable via Google and other search engines down through the component level? I searched some terms on VMI's AS pages and they all came up in a Google search right at the top. However they did not have any components, they were all upper-level titles or scope and content notes. As far as you know, are AS records searchable down through the lowest levels of a finding aid?"

I don't think our instances are being indexed yet, so I have no way of knowing for sure. Is there a limit to how deeply the site is indexed and if so, is there any way to influence the depth of the search?

Thanks for your time,
