Hi, Josh -

There was a good session at PLA this year about curbside service. My
library DOES plan to implement this service post-corona. You will find the
slides from the presentation here:

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Curbside Delivery & Similar - sharing ideas

[Josh Stompro]

Hello Everyone, I'm wondering if those of you that have tried curbside
delivery & similar services, or those that have started planning for it but
haven't tried yet could share your experiences and documents.   It isn't
something that we have ever done before, and I'm not sure if we will try
it.  But I want to try and be prepared in case it does come up.

I'm curious if you rely on customers having cell phones to call when they
drive up?  Or if you have someone outside just taking orders?  Anyone use
something like a wireless intercom, baby monitor, ring camera, etc.

We have many one person rural libraries, so I'm curious how things work
with just having one person, vs having several employees.

Thanks
Josh

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Marc field change script

[Jason Stephenson]

It is personal preference.

I agree wholeheartedly on creating your own, custom schema for
nonstandard things. We've got a schema called cwmars for custom
functions, views, and tables that we use in some local processes.

I've also added a schema called backstage to use exclusively with our
quarterly bibliographic/authority updates from Backstage Library Works.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Marc field change script

[Rogan Hamby]

To me, and this is personal preference I think, I don't see a big
difference between writing something once outside the db versus in it.
Both approaches are fine in my mind.  It does make me think of a point I
didn't mention though, which is I wouldn't store a function in any existing
Evergreen schema.  If you do make your own functions for tasks like this
create a distinct schema for them along with any tables.  I'm not a fan of
mixing project stuff into the stock schemas.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Marc field change script

[Jason Stephenson]

Glen & Rogan,

I prefer to do these things outside of the database, i.e. pull the
record out with DBI, modify it, and then update it with DBI.

I'm not a fan of writing database functions for something that I'll use
only once or twice.

I have some utility scripts that I've used and shared with the world
available on Github:

https://github.com/Dyrcona/evergreen_utilities/tree/master/perl

A couple of those might prove useful as examples, possibly loaderecords.pl.

My pre-conference presentation last year covered getting started writing
utility programs in Perl using the Evergreen back end. The files for it
are also available on Github:

https://github.com/Dyrcona/evergreen2019-preconference

I hope that you find the above to be useful, and if you have more
technical questions, the conversation should probably move to the
development list.

Cheers,
Jason

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Marc field change script

[Rogan Hamby]

Hi Glen,

If you have someone on staff comfortable with MARC::Record this is a simple
thing to do with PLPERL as a function.  In fact I'd say this is a good
really simple one for someone to cut their teeth on if they were learning
and the kind of thing I was going to do in the preconference.  Depending on
how things work out I may still do something like it for the virtual
conference.

As always caveat auctor (writer beware) - use a test server first, test
carefully, etc...

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Marc field change script

[Linda Jansova]

Hi Glen,

In some cases MarcEdit can be a good solution: 
https://marcedit.reeset.net/ (but it involves exporting and importing 
the records in question - if the records are already loaded in 
Evergreen; if not, then MarcEdit can be the best option).

In particular, we have about 10,000 records with contents in the 100-e 
subfield which we would like to eliminate.  In those cases, the 100-a 
ends in a comma, which we would like to eliminate (or change to a 
period) as well.


Thanks.  --  Glen.
