Matt, there are about a million public domain ebooks in the Open Library and I have been trying to come up with a way to export MARC records with the URLs. It's tricky, but only because some scripting needs to be done. If anyone here has extracted the ebook records or who would like to help out so we can do this, please let me know. I'm happy to provide code-like specs for the steps that need to be taken.

Quoting Matt Amory <[email protected]>:

If so can you send me a URL?

Thanks much!

Hi Code4Lib-ers,

I want to chime in and say that I, too, enjoyed the streaming archive from
the conference.

I also have a question: my library has a horribly antiquated A to Z list of
databases and online resources (it's based in Access). We'd like to do
something that looks more modern and is far more user friendly. I found a
great article in the Code4Lib journal (issue 12, by Danielle Rosenthal &
Mario Bernado) about building a searchable A to Z list using Drupal. I'm
also wondering what other institutions have done as far as in-house
solutions. I know there're products we could buy, but, like everyone else,
we don't have much money at the moment.

Thanks for any info or advice!
