Re: [CODE4LIB] digital collections sitemaps

Jason, You may want to allow people just to give you the robots.txt file which references the sitemap. I also register the sitemaps individually with the big search engines for our site, but I found that very large sitemaps aren't processed very well. So, for our site I think I limited the

Joe, I have been very happy working with http://www.datatables.net/. You are going to have to answer many of those questions yourself, but this jquery datatable plug-in allows a variety of data sources and has MANY extensions, so it should work for you. Very simple to use and extensible. If

Re: [CODE4LIB] You *are* a coder. So what am I?

Not to be too pragmatic about it, but it is worth noting which languages are used in the wilds beyond the confines of our libraries. http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html I know everyone has their own style, but I would push newbies towards object-oriented languages,

Re: [CODE4LIB] You are a *pedantic* coder. So what am I?

I was just curious, so I threw the same thing into C#. class Foo { public static void sayHello() { hi(); } public static void hi() { Console.WriteLine(Hi from foo); } } class Bar : Foo { public

Another option would be hosting in a larger, free consortium, such as the Digital Library of the Caribbean (for which I am the developer) which already supports a lot of content on Haiti. We have an agreement with the Law Library Microfilm Consortium to host much of the Haitian legal history

Re: [CODE4LIB] Open Source release policies

We just went through that formal process internally at the University of Florida to get approval for some software that we had actually released the code for already, since it was partly paid for by federal grants. Overall the process wasn't super-streamlined and one felt they needed to be

Re: [CODE4LIB] LibGuides: I don't get it

First, SpringShare has great marketing. Secondly, it is a very simple CMS that was offered at a time that many libraries were not getting good web support from IT. LibGuides became the easiest way to edit web pages for many people. It is certainly true at my institution, where we have had
