Thanks David for the point raised by you. But in this mode of determining association, reading history of individual is not coming into picture. In fact we may build a collective dataset (a circulation cloud?) from which the association map can be generated and from that map (see http://www.literature-map.com)it is not possible to identify who is reading what. In short these services are not entering into Patron Privacy zone. These kind of services are very helpful for a researcher / or beginer of a field to readily identify 1) related authos; 2) related titles; and 3) related people (working in the same area or with a common reading interest). Thanks and regards, Parthasarathi Mukhopadhyay
At 26 Dec 2010 18:04:38 +0000 (UTC) from David Schuster <[email protected]>: These wold be great developments - but then some of us have issues with patron privacy... We have parents and teachers asking for a "list of what student X has checked out" we like to say this is not doable in Koha. So if there was a way to hide the data but use it analytically that would be fantastic. |
