Re: [CODE4LIB] Responsive website question

It sounds like you're doing this within a browser, so why not find some sort of magnifying glass extension? Like maybe this one? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/magnifier/ On Fri, Feb 5, 2016 at 12:53 PM, Junior Tidal wrote: > Hi Kyle, > > Our site is

Re: [CODE4LIB] Accordion menus & mobile web best practices

There are not many technical hurdles to implementing accordian menus. You could do it pretty easily with something like jQuery UI. https://jqueryui.com/accordion/ Whether it works well on a phone or not is just up to the way you go about it. On Tue, Dec 22, 2015 at 1:20 PM, Kyle Breneman

Re: [CODE4LIB] Librarian seeks online tool to create interactive network map

Gephi is very easy, http://gephi.github.io/ Just download it, add your data as comma separated values, and mess with it until it is pretty. No python or R required. On Tue, May 5, 2015 at 3:17 PM, Pikas, Christina K. christina.pi...@jhuapl.edu wrote: NodeXL, iGraph in R, iGraph in

Re: [CODE4LIB] Cover pages and Google

Perhaps it depends on how you are generating PDFs. If it is straight acrobat, then it should be as easy as making a PDF of all but the cover, running OCR, then adding the cover in as another page. As long as you do not generate OCR again, the added pages should stay image only. I haven't tried

Re: [CODE4LIB] Tool Library 2.0

In St. Louis, to my knowledge we do not have a makerspace as part of a library. We do however have a hackerspace called Arch Reactor and a new TechShop is coming soon, which I guess is maybe something similar but diffferent? Could any of you help clarify the terms for me and maybe explain what

Re: [CODE4LIB] Python CMSs

If you're new to python and django there will be a steep learning curve for you, but probably a much steeper one for people after you who may not do python at all. Drupal and Wordpress are limited, but non-technical librarians can still get in pretty easy to fix typos and add links at least..

Re: [CODE4LIB] Creating pdfs from images and their text

But Raffaele, how do you generate the hOCR in the first place if you're using human-generated transcripts and not OCR? Hand coding each page would take forever. On Fri, Jan 17, 2014 at 3:24 AM, raffaele messuti raffaele.mess...@gmail.com wrote: Padraic Stack wrote: What is a

Re: [CODE4LIB] Creating pdfs from images and their text

I don't think I can answer your question but I we have a similar problem. I'm not sure about all OCR programs, but the version of Tesseract I've seen in Islandora creates two files, one is the .txt file you would expect and the other is an hOCR file with very interesting mark up linking words in

What alternatives has your survey suggested? Would anyone suggest that a finding aid and its digital contents should not be in communication? On Tue, Jan 14, 2014 at 10:12 AM, Steven Majewski sd...@virginia.eduwrote: On Jan 14, 2014, at 10:54 AM, Johnston, Leslie lesl...@loc.gov wrote: I
