Overview

The Islandora OAI module (based on the oai2forcck Drupal module) provides support for a site to be visible via the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH). In short, a site properly configured using this module has its Solr index - and accompanying metadata - visible to other sites that harvest OAI-compatible metadata. These harvesters make various types of requests at a URL that you can specify, and your site responds with metadata information that they in turn can add to massive archival indices. This makes it much easier for researchers to find Fedora objects on your site.
