I'd like a basic session as well. Something for people like me that hear Solr is great, but aren't even sure exactly what it is. Also, is there a conference price, or is it just the hotel room? I can't find anything on the website price wise other than $119/night for the hotel. Thank you,

David, There is a registration fee for the conference, but it appears to have fallen out of the template this year. It's traditionally hovered around $120. -Mike On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 08:13, David A. Faler dfa...@tlcdelivers.com wrote: I'd like a basic session as well.  Something for

A quick addendum for talk proposers: We have 47 proposals and approximately 17 slots. That means 30 or more disappointed talk proposers. But fret not! The conference will have ample opportunities to share your ideas in lightning talks, breakout sessions, and (most importantly) brewpub chats.

Hi Everyone, One feature missing from the EBSCO Search Box Builder is the ability to limit by date. Does anyone know of a way to do this from the search box code? I tried all the values from the results page with no success. I'm having a hard time finding any information about this online

[CODE4LIB] Assigning DOI for local content

2009-11-17 Thread Ranti Junus
Hi All, I was asked by somebody from a college @ my institution whether they should go with assigning DOI for their journal articles: http://llt.msu.edu/ I can see the advantage of this approach and my first thought is more about whether they have resources in running their purl server, or

2009-11-17 Thread Jonathan Rochkind
So I have no actual experience with this. But you have to pay for DOI's. I've never done it, but I don't think you neccesarily have to run your own purl server -- CrossRef takes care of it. Of course, if your documents are going to be moving all over the place, if you run your own purl

Re: [CODE4LIB] Assigning DOI for local content

The first question is: what are they trying to accomplish by having DOIs? Do they have a long-term plan for persistence of their content? Financial plan? If they're looking for persistent identifiers, I don't understand (a priori), why DOI is better, as an identifier scheme, than any other
