shows records. However, the “Date” field in all records have this date “2006-06-19” ( ), which is no correct. Where does OJS’s OAI-PMH code pull this date from? Looks like from database table article field “date_submitted”. However, “date_submitted” does not mean article was published on this date.
There is also a field “citation_date”. These two values can be different.
That data comes from the published_articles.date_published field. If the data there is not correct, can you describe how you entered your content into the system?

At the regular webpage source, citation_date is “2011”. (Google scholar use this field for indexing)
So questions here:
for OAI “Date” and webpage “DC.Date.modified” and “DC.Date.issued”, if published_articles.date_publisher is NULL, then use articles.date_status_modified?
It seems to me that unless an article is submitted/published on the same month of the original issue. The “date” or “citation_date” can be incorrect?
OAI “Date” can be different from webpage’s “Citation_date”. Which table does “citation_date” gets data from?
The Google Scholar citation_date might be sourced from a number of different places – the published_articles.date_published if available, or issue year, or issues.date_published. Both of the referenced columns are set automatically during normal workflow, so if you used the normal workflow to enter back-issue content, then it’s likely that these are set incorrectly. It is possible to set them from the UI but if you have a lot of content the quickest thing to do is probably to go in via a tool like phpMyAdmin and correct them in the database.

The issue publication date can be corrected from:
Issues > Back Issues > Edit (on the issue you wish to correct)
Go to the “Issue Data” tab, and you should see a “Date Published” field.
The article publication date can be corrected from the submission’s workflow pages:
Production > Schedule for Publication
You should see a field there called “Published”.
Both the XML import process and the Quick Submit plugin will take care of setting these dates more flexibly, so those processes are recommended for back-issue imports.
