2014-10-28 Thread Susan Kane
-- Because Unix is geeky and fun. -- Because its basic concepts are still visible in GUI computing, like Latin roots. -- Because you can say "Well, I could do it in *Unix*" when you can't do something, even if it's a complete lie. The illusion of technical competency is important. Just make sur

Obviously, we must now task someone in CODE4LIB with writing a Python script to convert New Zealand English to International English. Or, I guess we could solve this on the user side with a sarcasm filter or a humor pipe, but you might lose some data that way. :-) -- Susan Kane Boston(ish), MA

I think the repeating morning / afternoon concept has some merit, but people would need to be assigned to the morning slot or the afternoon slot on any given day to keep the room sizes reasonable. Hard to enforce but necessary. Maybe there is a big get-together. Maybe not. Maybe the smaller get

[CODE4LIB] screen scraping

2011-10-02 Thread Susan Kane
For public use, I'd Ask the Webmaster as a courtesy -- regardless of legality. After all, it is (presumably) their content and they should have some say in whether it appears on another site. If my content were used to drive traffic at another site, I'd probably want to know who and where, etc.

This is not my area of expertise ... but if Work in FRBR doesn't mean any particular manifestation, expression or item ... what does it mean? Do Works live in Plato's world of Ideas where abstracted version of things exist in a more real and more true sense than any shifty mimes in our world

2010-10-03 Thread Susan Kane
My only thought is that if you can use some kind of already existing system (ACRL or ARL reporting? Marshall Breeding?) I think you will have better luck than requesting voluntary participation by either libraries or vendors. Certainly, lots of libraries will voluntarily contribute these kind of
