We have a colleague looking into giving our Public Lending Rights system some TLC. This is the process we use to survey any library holdings and count any holdings by New Zealand authors/producers. I was asked if I knew of any lists of exposed z39.50 endpoints that we could interrogate as part of our holdings survey. I thought this might be something some of you have / could comment on. We're interested in any library, public or private, and will happily take any suggests on or off list, especially if you know of any endpoints that are exposed but not specifically publicised.

[CODE4LIB] xEAC advanced beta / pre-production release ready for further testing
Hi all, xEAC (https://github.com/ewg118/xEAC), an open source, XForms-based framework for the creation and publication of EAC-CPF records (for archival authorities or scholarly prosopographies) is now ready for another round of testing. While xEAC is still under development, it is essentially production-ready for small-to-medium collections of authority records (less than 100,000). xEAC handles the majority of the elements in the EAC-CPF schema, with particular focus on enhancing controlled vocabulary with external linked open data systems and the semantic linking of relations between entities. The following LOD lookup mechanisms are supported: Geography: Geonames, LCNAF, Getty TGN, Pleiades Gazetteer of Ancient Places Occupations/Functions: Getty AAT Misc. linking and data import: VIAF, DBpedia, nomisma.org, and SNAC xEAC supports transformation of EAC-CPF into a rudimentary form of three different RDF models and posting data into an RDF triplestore by optionally connecting the system to a SPARQL endpoint. Additionally, EADitor ( https://github.com/ewg118/eaditor), an open source framework for EAD finding aid creation and publication can hook into a xEAC installation for controlled vocabulary as well as posting to a triplestore, making it possible to link archival authorities and content through LOD methodologies. The recently released American Numismatic Society biographies ( http://numismatics.org/authorities/) and the new version of the archives ( http://numismatics.org/archives/) illustrate this architecture. For example, the authority record for Edward T. Newell ( http://numismatics.org/authority/newell), contains a dynamically generated list of archival resources (from a SPARQL query). This method is more scalable and sustainable in the long run than using the EAC resourceRelation element. Now that SPARQL has successfully been implemented in xEAC, I will begin to integrate social network analysis interfaces into the application.
