HTML sitemaps provide a list of all items, collections and communities in HTML format, whilst Google sitemaps provide the same information in gzipped XML format.<o:p></o:p></p><p>To generate the sitemaps, you need to run <code><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>[dspace]/bin/generate-sitemaps</span></code> This creates the sitemaps in <code><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>[dspace]/sitemaps/</span></code><o:p></o:p></p><p>The sitemaps can be accessed from the following URLs:<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>·<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]>http://dspace.example.com/dspace/sitemap - Index sitemap<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>·<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]>http://dspace.example.com/dspace/sitemap?map=0 - First list of items (up to 50,000)<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo1'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>·<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]>http://dspace.example.com/dspace/sitemap?map=n - Subsequent lists of items (e.g. 50,0001 to 100,000) etc...<o:p></o:p></p><p>HTML sitemaps follow the same procedure: <o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>·<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]>http://dspace.example.com/dspace/htmlmap - Index sitemap<o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2'><![if !supportLists]><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'><span style='mso-list:Ignore'>·<span style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span></span></span><![endif]>etc...<o:p></o:p></p><p>When running <code><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>[dspace]/bin/generate-sitemaps</span></code> the script informs Google that the sitemaps have been updated.

If your DSpace server requires the use of a HTTP proxy to connect to the Internet, ensure that you have set <code><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>http.proxy.host</span></code> and <code><span
