Re: [CODE4LIB] JAVA deployment and msi

[Riley Childs]

You can extract the MSI from the Java 8 installer and modify the MSI with 
something like Orca.
Simply Download the OFFLINE installer and run it, do not click next or install 
Java.
Navigate to C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\Sun and then you will find a 
folder for the java version with the MSI in it.
You can now use Orca to modify the MSI 
(http://www.technipages.com/download-orca-msi-editor)
The pro version gives you some fancy features

With the release of Java SE 8u20, Oracle introduced an MSI Enterprise JRE 
Installer. This is a new MSI compatible installer that enables system 
administrators to install the JRE across the enterprise without end user

Hi Bohyun,

How specifically are you deploying the msi package? I would imagine any 
organization large enough to have this problem to have Microsoft System Center 
Configuration Manager or some other kind of central software management.

Msi files are nothing more than a payload with a special script that is run 
when you double click on it (or deploy it via some management software). So you 
could roll your own by creating a simple powershell script that installs it for 
you, or even a super simple batch file.

Looking at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/silent-136552.html you 
simply need to add the /s for a silent install.
Perhaps you could provide more details as to the problem you are running into? 
More details is always better than less.

Bohyun,



Let me preface this with the fact that the only desktop admin I have done 
enterprise wide was during an internship in college. But, it looks like Specops 
just sits on top of Microsoft software products and extends it functionality. 
So, I would imagine if all you need to do is install the latest version of java 
is to download the jre.exe, and use Specops to run it on all your computers 
using the /s command line switch. Not having used Specops I don't know the 
specifics but I would also imagine you have someone there that handles 
interacting with it and should be able to create a new install using the 
jre.exe and /s.



Now if on the other hand you want all the extra functionality that is promised 
by oracle's MSI, you will have to do that yourself by writing some kind of 
script to handle the logic. If it is windows vista or newer you should have 
powershell installed. Powershell would provide lots of functionality in regards 
to handling the logic of what to remove, where, etc.



Hope this helps, good luck!

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Lending/circulating independent ebooks

Has anyone figured out how to circulate one-off/independent e-books to your 
library patrons? We have ebooks that are not from major vendors like EBL, etc 
that we have permission to loan. However, I want to be sure that we have some 
sort of controls on them so that we are not simply distributing free copies.

I envision a system that would take a non-DRM ebook file (PDF?) and place 
limits on it for a specific time-frame. This system would also track what is 
out and what is available.

I think think of various individual pieces that may work in my context, but not 
the full system.

There is great potential here. Any musings or thoughts would be welcome.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Deep Freeze + PaperCut + Windows profiles

[Riley Childs]

We had a similar issue on our lab machines, there was a GPO that we created to 
fix the issue, I need to look in Group Policy though.
And what is so wrong with Windows 8.1? Part of our speed issues were resolved 
by reimaging onto 8.1 Enterprise.

Any chance using a thaw space for that part of the profile?

 In our computer labs, we currently use Deep Freeze.[1] It lets us grant
 our users full administrative rights, without worrying about malware,
 viruses, and such, because any changes the user makes are wiped out when
 they log off.

 A couple of years ago, the campus as a whole switched to PaperCut for
 managing print jobs.[2] This maintains separate print queues for each
 student, so that when they swipe their student card at the print release
 station, they see only their own print jobs.  Convenient!  At least
 compared to Pharos, the old system.

 Unfortunately, there's a nasty side-effect, which is that it takes a
 loong time to log into the lab computers.  Generally 5-6 minutes,
 sometimes as much as 10.  What's happening is:

 1) A student logs in with their Active Directory credentials
 2) The computer checks for a user profile and doesn't find one
 3) The computer creates a new windows profile for the student (slooow!)
 4) When they log off, Deep Freeze wipes out the profile.

 The fact that the computer has to download, install, and configure the
 PaperCut print drivers makes Step 3 even slower.  They're per-user.
 They're baked into the user profile, so they get created fresh every time
 and wiped out again afterwards.

 As a recent comment on Yik-Yak put it: Patience is waiting for the
 library computers to log you on.

 We're currently on Windows 8 (yuck), but the problem occurred with 7 as
 well.

 We've talked about removing Deep Freeze and simply placing the computers
 on restricted accounts with no permissions to install software, etc.  That
 would *partially* address it, because profiles would no longer be wiped
 out.  As long as students went to the same computer over and over, they'd
 only be faced with a long logon the first time.  But, of course, it's a lab
 and there's no guarantee you can get the same computer all the time, so
 that's a poor solution at best.

Subject: [CODE4LIB] code4lib registration repercussions?

Hi everybody,

I hope this is the right place to inquire about this. I have some
information about a possible problem with the company handling
registration for code4lib. I recently noticed a suspicious charge on my
credit card for the amount of $64.95. The charge showed up as
ACT*ACTIVE-NETWORK. After some investigation I found out this was from a
company called ACTIVE Network, LLC. Apparently this company handles
registration for events.

To my dismay I found out that I had been charged for this annually since
2013. I'm very embarrassed that 1. I didn't notice this during the
registration process and 2. I didn't catch the charges earlier. Anyhow,
after a quick email search I found something surprising; I had received
emails from this company at my /work/ email address. I never noticed the
emails because they looked like junkmail, however, upon reviewing them I
discovered that at some point I had supposedly registered for a free
trial that ended after a month, at which point I was automatically
enrolled into an annual subscription. Needless to say, I//did /not/ ever
sign up for any trial or subscription, at least not to my knowledge.

Since I have only used my personal credit card for work purposes 3
times, it was easy to tie this to code4lib 2013. I looked at my receipt
for code4lib 2013 and saw that something called RegOnline (owned by
Lanyon Solutions Inc) was used to process my event registration. Though
I'm not sure this is the same company, RegOnline, Lanyon Solutions Inc,
and ACTIVE Network, LLC all share the same physical address. I suspect
these three companies are one and the same and will refer to them as
ACTIVE Network, LLC for the rest of this email.

I did a little investigating and found out that ACTIVE Network, LLC.
uses unscrupulous business practices to trick people into singing up for
their annual subscription. The crux of this is an automatic opt-in
they employ while processing enrollments for third parties. Though I'm
very embarrassed I didn't catch this, in my own defense I wasn't
expecting it while registering for an academic conference. I'm not
blaming anyone nor am I angry with anyone on this list. I only send this
email to inquire and inform:

 1. To see if anyone else has had a similar experience.
 2. To warn other people from code4lib to check their bank statements.
 3. To plead with the community to stop using ACTIVE Network, LLC and
anything affiliated with them for registration.

Let me be frank for a moment. ACTIVE Network, LLC engages in highly
unethical business practices. I did not intend to enroll in any annual
subscriptions when I registered for code4lib and I never would have
agreed to anything of the sort had I noticed what was happening.
Additionally, the subscription isn't at all relevant to code4lib. I'm
not even sure what value is being provided by the subscription. I think
it has something to do with coupons for outdoor exercise equipment but
I'm not even sure. Also, these guys are bad. They lost class action
lawsuits in Iowa and Vermont. In fact, this whole thing is just bad all
around. Since noticing the fraudulent charges this morning, I've already
disputed them with my bank and filed a formal complaint against ACTIVE
Network, LLC with the better business bureau. Apparently I'm not the
only one:

Re: [CODE4LIB] Communications — conference and otherwise

[Riley Childs]

I would like to note that the documentation discussion here is prone to 
bikesheading, if there are going to be docs I say just start them rather then 
argue about X or Y. We have a wiki, lets use it (maybe get a few more people on 
board to create accounts). We have a significant amount of documentation there, 
rather then reinvent the wheel lets just go with the wiki. At this point lets 
focus on the content rather then accessibility or display, because who 
cares about that if there is no content to begin with and as long as structure 
is maintained we can do that stuff later.

Google Docs are horrid as a long term documentation solution, stay far away (we 
committed to using GDocs to do IT documentation, and that was a mistake).

Just one thing to consider in regards to Google Docs: accessibility.
Google Docs are a bit notorious for being accessible (to screen readers)

A practical approach would be to go with Google Docs but include a If

 I can speak to the signup for the Newcomer Dinner signup - previous years
 had the signup on the wiki, but this year we decided to try something
 different for the signup that didn't require an additional account to sign
 up. This should have given Ryan a bit of a break with people requesting
 wiki accounts last minute to sign up for the dinner. The link to the Google
 Doc was posted in the wiki, under the Newcomer dinner entry. Communications
 to the list and users have linked to the wiki page (though I do count one
 communication to the group that I directly linked to the Google Doc).

 If folks did not like the Google Docs setup for the dinners this year,
 please let me know and I can always bring the signups back to the wiki for
 future dinners. Again, it was an experiment for this year :c)

 I cannot speak for the Eventbrite pages, but my understanding that
 Eventbrite came with DLF handling registration finances this year.

 We have one person — Ryan Wick — who carries most of the load for the
 website and the wiki. I don’t think that he, or anyone else, takes
 responsibility for organizing the content. From here,it looks like
 everything is a mix of tradition and fire prevention. Accordingly, this
 year we had:

 — The conference web pages on code4lib.org
 — The usual assortment of pages on wiki.code4lib.org
 — The newcomer dinner page on Google Docs
 — Stuff on Eventbrite

 Resulting in a mix of the usual symptoms:

 — No single place to find stuff
 — Conflicting information
 — Not clear editorial policy

 So, what do we do, and who is this “we, anyhow?

 The conference organizers have control, in theory, but I think that they
 are understandably loath to mess with the traditional mix. There is no
 place for them to ask a question and get a single, cogent, authoritative
 answer.

 Code4lib itself isn’t really a thing, just an us, and we have been loath
 to form standing committees, although we have done that after a fashion for
 scholarships and the Journal. I think that the time has come for a Code4lib
 communications task force —I love that name — to address the structure

money won't be there for it) .
We lease because the TCO is much lower at the volume we lease at, I highly

to make sure it was to hand at the time it's needed... I'm sure there's more 
that I don't know.

Because the broadcast is live, it's really NOT as simple as sticking up a piece 
of paper when someone comes on who doesn't want to be filmed because ONCE 
you've inadvertently filmed someone the cat is out of the bag - their image is 
out there for the world to see - it requires a bit of planning and thought (as 
I imagine) before the person is standing there getting filmed.

Cary and Riley (others) film C4L for fun and for free and may () want to 
actually do stuff other than juggling pieces of paper (like take a restroom 
break, perhaps?).

I believe Cary's and Riley's assessment that this is burdensome cos I can just 
imagine how this would be if *I* had to do it. Both have way more experience 
with this than me (er... I have none), but still, as I understand it, this is 
more than they feel comfortable taking on.

(Haven't you watched them - they actually DO bring some production values to 
this, too.)

 I think that requiring explicit permission from presenters is overly 
 burdensome for the crew that is struggling to get the recordings up. I think 
 that speakers and presenters should be informed that all presentations may be 
 recorded and made available to the public unless they inform the conference 
 committee that they do not want to be recorded before their presentation 
 begins.

 If they object, the video crew will refrain from capturing their presentation.

 If we do screen capture again, it is possible that presenter could have the 
 option of allowing us to record their voice and screen.

I think it is pretty straightforward.
[] I am ok with my image, audio, and presentation being broadcast and archived 
(default)
[] I am not ok with my image being brodcasted, but will allow audio and slides
[] none of the above


This needs to be opt out, not opt in.

If it's too burdensome for the livestream crew, I'd be happy to
volunteer to work with the program committee and streaming committee to
make it happen.

I'd be willing to adapt the plain English consent sheet we used for
Access and the International Evergreen conference. I think it's
important for communication to be clear about where the video will be
streamed and archived. As a presenter I'm definately more mindful about
what I'm saying if I know it's going to be published to the web.

I think informed consent is important.

I haven't managed a network for years, but our approach was to provide a
broad statement of what the network was for and to make it clear the
network couldn't be used for malicious or illegal purposes.

The CYA policy is a start but you'll still have to deal with problems such
as people using the network to stalk/harass others, intentionally or
unintentionally attack other systems, and piracy. Balancing user needs with
very real privacy issues, network capacity, and the sad fact that some
people act like jerks when they can hide behind a veil of anonymity is
challenging. I'm glad I don't have to worry about that kind of stuff

 They send a person to walk around the building with a laptop measuring the

 physical locations in the building and record that info into a database. Then 
 as a person walks around the building, they know where they are based on the 
 relative strengths of the various devices. If a device moves or is replaced, 
 then you have to measure again to get a new database.

 You don't actually need to connect to the access point to know the strength 
 of signal from it. Retail stores are also starting to use this technology to 
 track what parts of the store people spend time in. They can track the 
 location of a particular wifi device even if it's not connected to the 
 network. So the tech exists, to work both ways. :)

 It shouldn’t be impossible, but it would be tricky. Normally, users connect

Re: [CODE4LIB] Streaming Copyrighted material

[Riley Childs]

But the difference here is that the defendant did not go and find the content, 
whereas if I, Riley Childs, go make my own site organizing Videos from Vevo and 
embedding them in mass I would be in violation of Vevo's specific ToS and the 
copyright law because I am knowingly providing a method for people to view 
videos outside of the provided license. Maybe I am reading the articles wrong, 
but Flava Works vs Gunter cannot be compared in this case because Gunter is a 
service provider who doesn't encourage infringement. But Riley's Vevo 
Aggregator would be intentionally retrieving copyrighted videos in mass, This 
is like how although Adobe Reader [or insert freeware of your choice] is free I 
cannot go and host downloads of it on my public website and repackage it into a 
custom installer.

Hello,

Is streaming (viewing online) copyrighted material illegal for individuals. 
According to the copyright.gov website this seems to be completely legal for 
the viewer when there isn't a copy of the work on the viewers computer. It only 
mentions hosting streams as being a misdemeanor, even if there isn't any profit.

This is becoming a huge issue as more content consumers become cord cutters. 
Has any librarians faced these questions?

I am planning on implementing Kodi in my library, but will only make public 
domain material accessible. Kodi provides an excellent user interface for 
organizing and viewing public domain material.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Streaming Copyrighted material

[Riley Childs]

The following is NOT legal advice, please consult your legal department in 
depth.

Now that my disclaimer is out of the way

you utilize the in place playback mechanisms given by vevo (embeding a YouTube 
video) for example that is perfectly legit, unless you are prohibited from 
hosting an aggregate site under YouTube/Vevo's ToS (you likely are) Now some 
streaming services prohibit embeds so this isn't an option but you can still 
link to the content source for example (which may still violate ToS, but this 
may not be legally enforceable) Now at the end of the day it all comes down to 
how the content is licensed to the viewer/consumer and weather the terms are 
legal under your jurisdiction laws or are within the terms of existing 
agreements. And most importantly weather you are considered a distributor or 
not under the terms of the agreement and the laws in your jurisdiction.

I come at this after spending the day dealing with MS Client/Server Licensing, 
so I maybe being a little conservative. But better safe than sorry in many 
cases.

Hello,

What about websites that stream their content for free like Vevo? Would making 
that type of content accessible in a more organized manner be acceptable? Or 
would that be considered circumvention? I don't plan on doing that, I only plan 
on making Public domain content accessible but the questions of organizing 
material from abc.com or Fox news has come up. Since I'm certain that these 
commercial websites would love to have subscription services for Libraries, the 
legal issues are very interesting.

 Filling out this form is not a commitment to purchase. Stickers will be

 Those who purchase from the first batch will receive a 30% or more

Re: [CODE4LIB] Drupal question

I concur, the theme needs to be placed in a subdirectory like what I described 
earlier:
wp-root/wp-content/themes/librarylearn/files here

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Drupal question

At first glance, it looks like you could possibly be missing access to a 
required file. :)

The dynamic path mentioned: 'library/Detector/lib/ua- parser-php/UAParser.php'
doesn't look WordPress-y to me. I'm wondering:
1) If you have copied the theme in it's entirety
2) If somehow paths got mixed up.

Another thing that looks odd to me is the placement of that functions.php file. 
The functions.php file, within a WP system, is normally contained in a 
designated theme name directory - not directly in the 'themes' folder.
I'd expect to see that path look more like this:
/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/YourThemeNameHere/functions.php
where YourThemeNameHere is the theme you've chosen for your site.

Just a hunch: where did you place that theme? Did you copy it directly in the 
'themes' directory, or did you copy the folder it was contained in as well? In 
other words, when you look inside that 'themes' directory, do you see a bunch 
of files? There shouldn't be anything in there but folders.

If you had someone you trust to take a look at this setup, or play around with 
that functions.php file, that's the route I'd go, if you didn't feel 
comfortable with it yourself.

Is this a 'live' site?

   Sergio,
  
   If you can't login to WP at all, there's possibly bigger issues 
   at
 play
   here.  Try this:
  
   put:
  
   define('WP_DEBUG', true);
  
   in your wp-config.php file; you probably already have the 
   definition,
  just
   change it to *true*. No parentheses.
   I'd normally never suggest that for a 'live' site, but that WSOD 
   isn't doing you any favors at the moment, either. What this does, 
   is
  essentially
   show you on that white screen what/where your error might be. 
   Also pay attention to the URL that's displayed in the address bar 
   - can you
 still
   navigate about your site? Is every page blank? Is it only admin?
  
   If that isn't working, try removing the theme from the
 wp-content/themes
   directory.
  
   Did you make backups before you did this? Just curious.

[CODE4LIB] code4lib stickers

This is a reminder to fill out the code4lib stickers response form if you are 
interested (yeah, I haven't given up yet...), I am waiting to order until I 
have 50 people on the list (or enough where I can be sure I won't be left with

I am leaning towards a diecut sticker depending on further response. Filling 
out this form is not a commitment to purchase. Stickers will be printed by 
StickerMule and will be on demand following the initial batch. Those who 
purchase from the first batch will receive a 30% or more (depending on number 
of people who order) discount over the standard price.

 But I think more important is the “what do you mean by ‘standards’”
 question: C4L has definitely spawned several specifications (COinS, UnAPI,
 etc.) and (in my mind) has been under-utilized in this arena for a few
 years.  You’ve got a gathering of smart, like-minded people: if you want to
 create a spec, solicit your idea, start a mailing list, follow the ROGUE

 We’re generally in need of a spec, not a standard, I’ve found (although

 Lisa, I hadn't know about this so I just spend some time reading the items
 you list below. I was primarily motivated to do so because I had never
 heard of this famous librarian, Joe Murphy. (I must be in a different
 conference circuit than he is.)

 I also was interested because I've recently joined the hardworking group
 of Wikipedians who work to distinguish between notable persons and able
 self-promoters. In doing so, I've learned a lot about how self-promotion
 works, especially in social media. In Wikipedia, to be considered notable,
 there needs to be some reliable proof - that is, third-party references,
 not provided by the individual in question. In terms of accomplishments,
 for example for academics, there is a list of measures, albeit not
 measurable in the scientific sense. [1]

 Just for a lark, look at the Google scholar profiles for Joe Murphy, RoyT,
 and for myself:

 http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=zW1lb04Jhl=enoi=ao
 http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=LJw73cAJhl=en
 http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=m4Tx73QJhl=enoi=ao

 The h-index, while imprecise, is about as close as you get to something
 one can cite as a measure. It's not a decision, but it is an indication.

 I put this forward not as proof of anything, but to offer that reputation
 is extremely hard to quantify, but should be looked at with a critical eye
 and not taken for granted. It also fits in with what we already know, which
 is that men promote themselves in the workplace more aggressively than
 women do. In fact, in the Wikipedia group, we mainly find articles about
 men whose notability is over-stated. (You can see my blog post on the
 problems of notability for women. [2])

 I greatly admire your stand for free speech. Beyond this, I will contact
 you offline with other thoughts.

 Mr. Murphy claims that Ms. Rabey “posted the following false,

 Both Ms. Rabey and Ms. de jesus maintain that our comments are fair

 of us made the claims maliciously nor with any intent to damage Mr.
 Murphy’s reputation.

 Right now we need the following most importantly:

 1. We have a call out for additional witnesses

 2. Share our site (http://teamharpy.wordpress.com) which includes

 speaking up against sexual harassment and why you won't stand for it.

 3.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Library Services on Small Devices (like Watches): Discuss

[Riley Childs]

I have always thought Roving Reference was somewhat obtrusive (as a patron, 
in fact the public library in charlotte tried such a trial a few years ago: it 
didn't work very well). I think the whole RFID/NFC thing could work well. A 
common dream is the ablity to check out books simply by walking out, but it 
doesn't scale well (technical and physical limitations). What if, when you had 
your watch on, it could act as an NFC/RFID reader to add books to a cart and 
then an iBeacon- type thing could detect you leaving with your Smartphone to 
check out the books in your virtual cart as you left. But I don't think the 
uptake in smart watches will be as strong as some are prediciting, for several 
people I know the WOW factor wore off quickly. For now *I* am happy with my 
Timex IronMan, which has done a really great job at telling time for the last 5 
years. Maybe there might be a use in loaning out the watches at the library 
entry to permit the functionality we want (of course a lower!
  cost device). 
Just my $.02

Hello,

At this point in my career I'm totally sold on the idea of getting rid of the 
reference desk and iRoving. At the libraries I've worked at(4 community 
colleges) iRoving was very suitable, however I think that every library is 
different. 

One of the issues we've found with a complete iRoving solution to reference is: 
where is the librarian. With convergence, mapping and geolocation, and 
devices like a smart watch; This becomes more possible. 

I could also imagine using it as a library card and for self-check out via a 
library app. The Augmented reality possibilities along with some possibilities 
in conjunction with a 3D printer comes to mind. 

I like the idea of shelf reading and pushing call numbers too. The phone seems 
to be getting pushed to its holder, pocket, or purse; and serving as the 
processing hub for wearables.

What ILS are you using? Could you hook a barcode scanner up to a tablet

Hello All,

I'm still relatively new to this list, however, based on discussion I've
already seen I thought I'd try this topic for this list.

So, we've recently switched to Active Directory on our public machines.
Although we're a relatively small library, it is still creating some
printing chaos.  We added the printers to the computers manually using an
admin account and the printers are mapped to the LPR port and
defaults/preferences are all set.  However, these preferences and settings
don't seem to hold when users login.  Is there a nice way to set the
default printer for users? And preferences like printing double sided? I
recognize some of this might be able to be done at a group policy level,
but, I wanted to see what other folks were doing.

*TL;DR:* *How do you manage local printing (printers are in our building)
when computers are on Active Directory (managed at a campus level)? *I'm
curious what works (or doesn't work) for other libraries.

Have a good afternoon!

 that is the case, have you tried creating a local port on each of the
 machines.  Simply sharing a printer work for only one user, but you install
 the drivers to a local Internet port, it will behave the same way as if you
 installed the printer on a serial or parallel port.

 If you go to Add Printer, choose Local Port/Create New Port  (Standard
 TCP/IP port should do the trick).  Just make sure you know the IP address
 of your printer.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Printing + Active Directory

[Riley Childs]

LibPrinter.vbs:

Set LibPrinter = CreateObject(“WScript.Network”)
LibPrinter.SetDefaultPrinter “[PRINTER_NAME]“

Where [PRINTER_NAME] is the exact name as spears in Devices and Printers
Simply set this as a startup script and go to town!
I would still highly recommend a print server of some type

Hello,

It is actually 4 printers (2 cash printers, 1 color cash, 1 papercut [not
under our control]). We'd like it to default to one of the cash
printers--printout comes to printer behind desk and student pays desk in
cash. But, then we would like to leave color or papercut printing as an
options for users who prefer those.

Thanks for the suggestions. I will keep the TCP/IP port option in mind if
this gets too crazy. Also, we do not currently have a print server,
however, I will keep it in mind as I work more with our Campus IT.

Thanks,

Re: [CODE4LIB] Informal survey regarding library website liberty

[Riley Childs]

We run our koha and library site on an Ubuntu instance in Hyper-V (2008 for 2 
yrs and 2012 for the past month) and have for several years (Hyper-V 2012 
actually has fantastic Linux support I would actually recommend it over ESXi or 
Citrix Xen, both of which I have been lucky enough to have used in production). 
I am a one man library/IT guy (collaboration: Me talking to myself)and I have a 
little more control over the servers then most. As far as updates on our Ubuntu 
VMs go I really dont have any issues because I normally just live clone the VM 
(I really like hyperv 2012 R2), issue apt-get upgrade, test, test, test, and 
then run apt-get upgrade on the production VM. Besides, our IT Consultants 
(shout out to Quo Vadis) are pretty Linux friendly, which is rare in the SMB 
market.
From what I understand, though, the above paragraph is the exception rather 
then the rule. I am interested to hear what others have to share.

Hi Junior,

We have been hosting library sites for 14 years and Drupal sites for over 7 
years. Two years ago we shuttered our data center that was located three 
stories underground in an LA bank vault (really) and executed a plan that was 
four years in the making and moved everything to AWS. We leverage CI and other 
automation to reduce the boring parts of our job, and AWS's reliability reduces 
the exciting parts. We are AWS consulting partners and have been initiated into 
the AWS black arts and crafts.

While we would love to have more clients, this is not an ad for us. We have a 
long standing policy of answering any question regarding Drupal and Drupal 
hosting that is asked on the Drupal4Lib list for the low price of absolutely 
nothing. We might not have every answer, but if we don't, odds are that someone 
else on the list will. This is the good stuff. We don't hold back.

Drop in and fire away.

Thanks,

Cary

 Hi Brad,

 When first starting working, our library web server was on a shared Windows 
 IIS server with several other departments, which prevented us from using a 
 CMS due to security concerns. The initial site was a static set of pages, so 
 we couldn't install PHP, MySQL, etc.

 Through the encouragement of our then Chief Librarian, I wrote a proposal to 
 our provost so the library could have our own LAMP server so we could install 
 Drupal. The proposal was approved, but the tradeoff was that it was the 
 library's responsibility (me) to administer the web server. IT hosted the 
 server in their server room, but we had to maintain security, OS/site 
 upgrades, and backups. That's not to say that our IT department wasn't 
 helpful, they were more hands off.

 We've had our own server for the last 5-6 years, but it's now on its last 
 legs. We've installed open-source CMSs such as Drupal, WordPress, and 
 MediaWiki so we've certainly outgrown our current server. We also need to 
 desperately upgrade our Drupal install, so we can rollout our responsive 
 redesign.

 We're migrating (hopefully this week) to the cloud to an Amazon instance with 
 a LAMP setup. IT was consulted to approve the purchase for the cloud 
 instance. I think this is a wise move, since there will be less worry for 
 everyone about hardware upgrades and systems maintenance.

 I personally think that if your library can system administrate your own 
 server it not only makes you less dependent on your institution's IT, but it 
 allows for the site to grow and evolve for newer web technologies.

 Best,
 Junior

So, 2 points worth discussing here.

1. I'll bet you most proxy servers are not proxying AddThis.com or 
Sharethis.com. So there wouldn't be any effect of proxying on the user tracking 
they do.

2. It really doesn't matter if you identify yourself to the catalog or not. 
You're being tracked across sites all over the internet. If you identify 
yourself to one of them, you can be identified. Note that the main concern here 
is if you use your own device to access the library's catalog.

So far I have 14 people that have indicated interest in stickers, for this
to be economically viable I need at least 50 people to indicate interest
that would like to purchase from the initial run, this will be slightly
cheaper than when they go for general sale on sticker mule. The google form

Re: [CODE4LIB] Stickers

[Riley Childs]

I should have noted, the form is not a commitment it is simply to gather 
interest, forgot to mention that!

Mockup: Working on it, there are 3 types, a die-cut sticker, an oval sticker 
with the code4lib logo in the middle, and the obligatory bumper sticker to 
plaster all over your methods of transit. I will be sure to provide a final 
mockup prior to purchase for approval from the list of course!

Pricing, it totally depends on the number/type of stickers people indicate 
intrest in, the more that are ordered the cheaper they get! But on average it 
will be about about $1.70-$2 per sticker including shipping for the first run 
and then they are printed on demand by sticker mule for about $4 each (mainly 
because they aren't purchased in bulk).

I am happy to answer other questions.

I just don't want to be the one who sells the stickers, unless someone would 
like to take up that job? I liked sticker mule because they have a fast 
turnaround and after I sell a batch they will list it on their store and I 
won't have to be a middle man! I thought about simply selling them myself, but 
I don't have time to process and ship orders on a regular basis (it is a lot of

First, I have to get it out of the way: One of the biggest things to remember, 
the most secure system is the one that is not on and connected...


Second (read the entire statement): This tracking data serves as a barter 
system for services, but I think the big issue is that there is no price tag 
on the website, it is like walking into a grocery store and seeing SALE! but 
with no price tag, then getting to the register paying and THEN looking at your 
receipt and realizing that book cost your soul.

I don't believe the horse has left the barn forever. As Bruce Schneier
says, security is a process, not a product. And as we learn more about this
space we can advocate in our own institutions for greater awareness and
perhaps adjustments to the technologies we use to evaluate online activity.
AddThis and ShareThis probably have limited value for the data they
compromise. Google Analytics is probably a much better trade. EZproxy too...

 I think a reasonable place to draw a line in the sand is use for
 advertising. If you look at the Google Analytics site, it doesn't appear
 that they can use Analytics tracking for advertising, because they don't
 make the carve-outs for children that I believe would be required if they
 did. So if you trust google, and assume they know everything anyway, you
 can let them track users.

 AddThis and ShareThis, on the other hand have TOS that let them use

 hypothetically, a teen could look at library catalog records for books

 A criminal prosecutor could subpoena either Google or AddThis/ShareThis to
 obtain tracking data for anyone in your library who had read books about
 Nazism or the Black Panthers or witchcraft,  completely without involving
 the library. Do you think Google would easily comply with that sort of
 request? would AddThis? Would EBSCO?

 At Unglue.it, we use Google Analytics, but we have avoided Things like
 Facebook Like, and the third party shares because we didn't like the

Re: [CODE4LIB] Dewey code

[Riley Childs]

There are advantages and disadvantages to both, but in your case Dewey is
likely you best bet, I was always under the impression that LC worked better
on a large scale rather then a small scale, of course I am no librarian so
take the previous statement with a grain of salt.

I would second the prudence of taking advantage of wheels already invented
if you can.  

One thing  I missed, though, in the earlier parts of this thread was  why
you wanted to use Dewey, Tom?   

Depending on the nature of the items in the collection, you may be better
off going  with LC   classification.  There could be  more readily available
complete copy bearing LC numbers and no Dewey numbers.   Going LC  would
avoid any potential need to later manually tweak the Dewey numbers you get
from LC   (a possibility you mentioned) - or the complete disruption should
a new edition of Dewey revise substantially your area...

Re: [CODE4LIB] Windows 7 Logon Screen Screensaver

It is possible, but your best bet (as was just said) is to use the photoscreen 
saver. It can all be done though GPOs
http://deployhappiness.com/setting-the-default-logon-screensaver-with-group-policy/
 this will allow you to point it at a local path and have windows move files to 
the local folder.

This is a long shot, I believe, but members of this group have answers.

On our Windows XP Pro student use computers, we have a custom screensaver app 
that runs at the logon screen and displays graphics highlighting library 
services and programs.   As we migrate to Windows 7, new security introduced by 
Microsoft limits access to custom applications when the logon screen is 
displayed, and we haven't figured out how to push the screensaver to the 
machine.   For obvious reasons we need to move to Windows 7.

Does anyone have a solution that pushes a custom screensaver to the Windows 7 
logon screen?   Thanks.

Forgive my ignorance. When I looked up ILS I came to this paragraph that
explains why:

Larger libraries use an ILS to order and acquire, receive and invoice,
catalog, circulate, track and shelve materials. Smaller libraries, such
as those in private homes ornon-profit organizations
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-profit(like churches or synagogues,
for instance), often forgo the expense and maintenance required to run
an ILS, and instead use alibrary computer system
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_computer_system.^[/citation
needed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed/] 
source: Wikipedia

We are a church with 1500 books we would like to put on our website, and
thought we would use this workflow:

 1.  Create barcode from isbn number and print label.
 2.  Acquire Dewey number from Library of Congress via z39.50, and
print that to a label.
 3.  Affix labels to the books.
 4.  Place marc records into a Postgresql database and allow users
to search via a browser, using Ruby on Rails for the front and back ends.

 At the moment I'm trying to figure out step 2. I'm the church
volunteer webmaster and not a coder, working with two other volunteers
who happen to be career professional librarians but not programmers.  If
the Dewey numbers generated by the LC are insufficient, we'll tweak them
over time. I just need to know how to isolate that one field to print it
to our thermal label printer.
Thank  you.

[CODE4LIB] c4l Stickers

[Riley Childs]

If you are interested in code4lib stickers please contact me directly. I am 
about to add the c4l stickers to stickermule, but can't because you need to 
purchase $50 in stickers before the design goes live. Those who prepurchase 
will get the stickers for $3 vs the usual $4.

 Coincidentally, I just purchased 1000 bumper stickers over @ psprint.com
 for a personal project and thought I'd mention they're running a 60% off
 promotion 'til July 15th. That discount got the price down to about $0.30
 per sticker which is the cheapest I've found anywhere online. Also, not
 sure if you've looked at Zazzle.com but they do print-on-demand which might
 be easier to coordinate.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Barcode scanner

[Riley Childs]

Ok, we use koha (if any one cares ;). I was looking at the Wasp unit that was 
recommended, but the only draw back is that I can't run a web browser on it to 
open a tiny inventory php script I wrote to pull data from koha and verify info 
then add the book to a csv. Does any one have a grocery store style unit that 
they integrate some how with their ILS?

It's your choice of a CSV or text file.

At a previous library, we used the III Millennium inventory system. You could 
edit this file with a macro to make it suitable for ingestion into the 
inventory system, and then upload it to III and process it from there.  I don't 
think III is still selling this old text-based inventory system, but it still 
works for the libraries that have it.  So this barcode scanner is not 
compatible with the new III Circa inventory system, AFAIK.  Other systems are 
out of my knowledge-base scope.  I mostly suggested this option thinking Riley 
may be processing the data outside the ILS.  That's what I've done with our 
small-scale periodicals counting project.

A couple questions:

The data is dumped into what type of file? Do you have an option?

And then how do you move that data into your ILS? (I know this is ILS dependent 
but I am trying to envision workflow). Do you the use an attached barcode 
reader to scan them into your system? Or do you have a way to import?

Riley,

Basically ANY barcode scanner would work for you. Barcode scanners simply read 
in data as though it was typed in from a keyboard.
What matters is that you have the symbologies  you need enabled. Library 
barcodes tend to be Codabar (which is not always enabled by default), while 
stores often use UPC/EAN (which is usually enabled). And the barcodes for our 
students and staff at the College are in Code 128.  If you can attach the 
barcode reader to a laptop and scan the barcodes into a blank text file, then 
it's enabled.

If you grab a copy of the manual for the barcode reader you can see how to 
program in any prefixes or suffixes you need and more - things like being able 
to tell which symbology is being used.

If all you're doing is scanning in barcode numbers to say that this piece of 
equipment is here, you don't even need a special program, just a text file that 
can be imported into Excel. We do something similar and upload data to our 
library system to update  the inventory of our collection at the various 
Branches.

There are indeed apps for Android and IOS devices that might enable you to use 
a phone to do it too.

Just my .02 worth.

Hello everyone and happy Monday

We had one of our MS800 get an E2 - 77 blinking error.  Sometimes you turn
it off and leave it for a bit and goes away for some time.
It¹s not in the regular manual and can not seem to find the service manual
online for free.  Most certainly a service code error.

Other then the long option of Canon tech support on this older out of date
equipment I thought I ask as it would be nice to find out what that error
is.

Thank-you

Subject: [CODE4LIB] 'automation' tools

I'm doing a workshop in the UK at a library tech unconference-style event (Pi 
and Mash http://piandmash.info) on automating computer based tasks.
I want to cover tools that are usable by non-programmers and that would work in 
a typical library environment. The types of tools I'm thinking of are:

MacroExpress
AutoHotKey
iMacros for Firefox

While I'm hoping workshop attendees will bring ideas about tasks they would 
like to automate the type of thing I have in mind are things like:

Filling out a set of standard data on a GUI or Web form (e.g. standard set of 
budget codes for an order)
Processing a list of item barcodes from a spreadsheet and doing something with 
them on the library system (e.g. change loan status, check for holds)
Similarly for User IDs
Navigating to a web page and doing some task 

Clearly some of these tasks would be better automated with appropriate APIs and 
scripts, but I want to try to introduce those without programming skills to 
some of the concepts and tools and essentially how they can work around 
problems themselves to some extent.

What tools do you use for this kind of automation task, and what kind of tasks 
do they best deal with?

Thanks,

Owen

individual level, the person being harassed defines it.

In particular, we'd need to think about how to shape the sanctions section,
including things like:

   - What's an appropriate sanction in non-conference setting X?
   - Who is empowered to enact sanctions?
   - If a participant feels they have been harassed, who do they contact
   and how?
   - possibly other stuff?

I think the conflict resolution part is in better shape, though it would
need a little cleanup for more universal (i.e., not conference-specific)
language.

 needed community-wide outside of conference time as well.

 I am definitely in favor of adopting one, if there isn't one in place!

 Logistically, Geek Feminism is also not a formal organization--they were
 recently described as an anarchist collective--so I think we could follow
 their lead pretty easily. We could make a mail alias that goes to a
 ROTATING team/committee (this is very important; people burn out, dealing

Solr with Koha? Now you have 2 problems.

I setup Koha to use Blacklight. I was fairly easy.It's been awhile, but if
I recall, I added a single-column table in Koha to queue bibkeys. Then I
added a db trigger to the bib table to add bibkeys to the queue table
whenever there was an create/update/delete performed on a row. Then I setup
a service that queried the database queue table, got bibkeys needing
creation/update/deletion, pulled the MARC from Koha's REST api,  indexed
their MARC into Solr, and then delete the bibkeys from the queue.

  Yeah, thats a 5 year old fork (no need for  no one in their right mind

 for actual Koha, id just export them as MARCXML as Andrew mentioned. Or
 look at the elastic search code in Koha which makes use of Catmandu, you

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] College Question!

Hi Riley,

I agree with most of the responses already provided. My personal
background: I have a BA in Computer Science with minors in English and
Business and my MLS.  Currently, my official job title is IT
Application Engineer and my job is to look after the ILS. Unlike a
lot of other places, the only thing I work on is the ILS (and reports
from the ILS). I don't do any cataloging or metadata work and don't
interact with other electronic resources/databases unless they work
directly with our ILS. I also currently don't do any web development
or PC troubleshooting.

Reflections on my education:
I'm very happy with my BA in Computer Science.  For my position, my
database class was particularly useful as were the various projects
assigned in other classes that required me to learn more than what the
class was ostensibly teaching (i.e. learning how to learn). Because I
went to a liberal arts school, I also had to take a full year of
English writing which I felt was very valuable. My English minor made
me more well-rounded which is useful in library land. My business
minor has so far been pretty useless professionally but has been great
from a personal finance perspective :)

I worked for a year as phone tech support while an undergrad. That was
a hellish job which I'd only do again if my child was starving.
However, I learned a lot about people skills from it as well as it
helped me practice troubleshooting things I couldn't see myself. I'm
still bemused the company expected phone tech support to be able to
walk a person with no computer experience through changing a hard
drive (usually explaining the difference between the computer and the
monitor was the hardest part).

I value my MLS but from a cost perspective it's probably hard to
justify in my current position. For my job description, the CS/IT
degree is required and the MLS is preferred, I have mixed feelings
about this. As an ILS administrator, the cataloging class I took was
the most useful library school class. I'm not a cataloger but I have
enough knowledge to be able to ask sensible questions when they need
the ILS to do something specific. The reference class was also useful,
particularly in terms of learning about the reference interview which
is used all the time in IT troubleshooting. There's also cultural
advantages to an MLS but computer people and library people already
have a fairly similar culture, even if the jargon is different.

My understanding is some libraries will help pay for an MLS (I believe
mine does, or use to) so perhaps that might be an option. There's a
lot of good online library programs and I know quite a few of the
staff in our district get their MLS while working for the district.

All that being said, being open to learning is more important than the
specific classes you take. Regardless of what you take in school,
things will change over the course of your career and it's important
to know how to continue gaining knowledge and skills once you've
graduated.

Good luck,

[CODE4LIB] HA Setups

[Riley Childs]

I had a quick question about HA Setups. I plan to host a WordPress site and 
wanted to hear what yall were using. I plan to have one HAProxy Server (maybe 
grow to 2 and implement round robin and heartbeat sync down the road), two Web 
Servers, two NFS Servers, and two MySQL Servers. My plan is to setup a 
redundant NFS and mount the share as the web root on each of the Apache 
servers. MySQL will run master slave and then use HyperDB on the WordPress side 
to handle multiple MySQL servers. I don't think there will be any issues but 
wanted to get some second opinions! This is for kicks and giggles, but am 
planing to use this for a project I am working on!

Thanks!
