Hi Brad,
My current workplace is set up in the campus CMS, Umbraco. It is very
limiting in what we can do (can't use widgets without permission), and
time-consuming to make edits. Apparently the state purchased another CMS,
and no other options will be available. I can't speak for what the new

Those edits had to be approved before being published. We were allowed server

The situation here was very similar to yours. The library had its own web

before I was hired to replace him), it was decided that all the library

I'm still relatively new to this list, however, based on discussion I've
already seen I thought I'd try this topic for this list.

Hi folks,
Does anyone have a handy scheme for coding LC call numbers into just a few
broad subject areas (e.g. Arts, Humanities, Sciences, Social Sciences) or
perhaps something only a little more granular than that?
I'm hoping for a list that will turn 1-3 letter LC classes into subject

The only good way to do this on a large scale is with a GPO, buttti

Hi Ken,
Here's a link to an XML mapping of LC call numbers ranges to categories that we
use in an indexing software. It may be a bit hefty for your needs (almost 6000
mappings), but hope it helps!

As for CONCENTRA, I have been promoting the idea of using them for years. I am

We have been hosting library sites for 14 years and Drupal sites for over 7
