Hey all,
I would love to tackle the issue of creating a really cool call number
browse tool that utilizes book covers, etc. However, I'd like to do this
outside of my ILS/OPAC. What I don't know is whether there are any
indexing / SQL / query techniques that could be used to browse forward

Hey all,

I'm not sure, but my guess would be that the example you give isn't
really a 'browse index' function, but rather creates a search result set
and presents it in a specific way (i.e. via cover images) sorted by call
number (by the look of it, it has an ID of the bib record as input, and
it displays
a decent UI is probably going to be a bigger job
I've always felt that the call number browse was a really useful option, but
the most disastrously implemented feature in most ILS catalog interfaces.
I think the problem is that we're focusing on the task -- browsing the shelf --
as opposed to
There are a number of services we offer that behave differently for
off-campus users vs. on-campus users (based on IP address) and testing
both behaviors is difficult while sitting on-campus.
I'm looking for an easy, reliable, and secure way to do this.
At the moment I'm doing a free 7-day
I'd try tor (http://tor.eff.org).

Call number browse often fails because of one primary reason: local
call numbers that don't fit $CALL_NUMBER_SYSTEM. The biggest example
that I can think of are non-book/serial materials, like AV materials
and archival collections.

Hi Chris,
I'm not sure how your campus is set up, but our IT folks actually have a
separate account with a local ISP just for this purpose; they were even nice
enough to run a line into my office so I can plug in to test off-campus
resources. Granted, if that doesn't already exists at your

That's pretty much what we did here. I signed us up for an account with
a local ISP, and our testing Mac is for testing how stuff looks in Mac
vs. PC (since 15% of our audience is on Macs) as well as for dialing up
to the ISP to see how stuff works from outside our network. (Knowing

Does anyone have a recommend standard XML format for the exchange of
calendar information, preferably something with a W3C standard? We want
to be able to publish data from our content management system in a
format that other calendars in our community could scoop up.

Cloutman,
I'd go with icalendar. It plays nicely with most major calendar applications.
also, at the risk of sounding like a shill, I'm helping develop a web
app (www.fusecal.com) that'll make it easier for web publishers to get
their calendar information into users personal calendars and keep the
