We use the Teemi TMCT-10 Bluetooth barcode scanner. Works fine with IOS,
Android, Mac and Windows. Costs less than $100.

Hm. You don't need to keep all 800k records in memory, you just need to
keep the data you need in memory, right? I'd keep a hash keyed by

I don't think you'll have trouble keeping such a hash in memory, for a

I was going to echo Eric Hatcher's recommendation of Solr and SolrMarc,
since I'm the creator of SolrMarc.
It does provide many of the same tools as are described in the toolset
you linked to, but it is designed to write to Solr rather than to a SQL
style database. Solr may or may not be more
I use an old Wasp barcode scanner to scan my spine barcodes when stock
checking a shelf or box of manuals. I think ease of use matters. The
laser line makes it easy to point and fast, it looks so wrong to me
watching people use pads to take pictures, also no waiting for
mechanical focus.

You could simply use an iPad as a barcode scanner. Disintermediate!

This is slightly off-topic but I can't think of a better place to ask.
I have been asked to investigate wireless barcode scanners, and
preferably ones that can work with an iPad (or be connected to an
iPad), for inventory purposes. I have found a few used in the retail
environment but I was wonderi

nobody probably has or will offer a public proxy to the Summon API as

I don't know what the Summon API uses to authenticate clients. It looks
from the Python code like a key and secret is involved. You should be care
about embedding these API credentials (key/secret) in a Javascript. This

I’m surprised you didn’t recommend going straight to Solr and doing the
reporting from there :) Index into Solr using your MARC library of choice
(e.g. solrmarc) and then get all authorities using &facet.field=authorities (or
whatever field name used).

Hello Tim,
whenever you need something mediawiki related, if you have any knowledge
of Python, you should have a look at pywikibot which is an incredible
python library for anything related to a mediawiki instance.
A little script that should fulfill your needs is available there :
