[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen Feedback Fest: Next week!

2020-02-10 Thread Terran McCanna
The first Evergreen Feedback Fest of the decade is taking place next week,
February 17-21, 2020 in order to get as many new features and bug fixes
with pullrequests tested and approved as possible for the next release
candidate.

We are currently working on building a group of sandboxes with
patches/features applied in order to make testing easier. More information
on the sandboxes will come in the next few days.

In the meantime, you can read more about Bug Squashing in general here:

We use Syndetics. They've historically had a larger and more diverse
selection of covers than any other vendor. (However, I haven't compared
numbers recently.)

NOBLE uses Content Cafe, which we purchase through a bundle from EBSCO with
our NoveList Select service for the catalog.  We previously had the
original Syndetics, and the basic Content Cafe brought more images back
when we converted.

We're using Baker & Taylor's Content Café 2, but not for our OPAC, which is
controlled by our consortium.  We use it for our website's new additions
section using a WordPress plugin called Bookshelves that works with their
service.  The service also provides enhanced content.  For $300 per year
(the last I checked), it's been good for us.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Better option for cover art?

2020-02-10 Thread Murphy, Benjamin
We currently use Open Library and are looking for a better option for cover art 
in our OPAC.

Anyone here using Syndetics? If so, what are your thoughts?

Are there other tools you'd suggest for displaying cover art?
