Re: [CODE4LIB] e-journal publishing software

[Mark Jordan]

University of Prince Edward Island is also looking at integrating OJS
and Fedora. Mark Leggot is the contact there.

In general OJS has a fairly flexible import/export framework, and
someone has written a METS export plugin of OCS (the conference
management version of OJS) that looks promising. There has been no
movement on web-services oriented integration but we are tossed around
the idea of using SWORD as an ingest protocol.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Serials Solutions 360 API - PHP classes?

[Jonathan Rochkind]

I find an API that you aren't allowed to share client code for to be
pretty much useless. If I'm a part of any evaluation committees
evaluating software purchases, I will certainly make that opinion known
and justify why I think it's justified.

My institution is not currently a SerSol customer for any products with
APIs. (Although we are a customer of a product that eventually
theoretically will have an API).  I think existing SerSol customers
should complain to SerSol about this.

Hey, I might as well write a blog post explaining why an API you aren't
allowed to share code for is practically useless...
http://bibwild.wordpress.com/2008/04/04/api_license_useless/

There you go.

 D'oh: here's the lowdown from SerSol:

 "The terms of the NDA do not allow for client signatories to share of

 other clients. However, if you would like to share them with us we can
 make them available to other API clients upon request. I think down the

Having seen the docs, I'm also somewhat mystified about what they're
protecting.  Perhaps whoever sets policy is too far removed from the

Hi Sunny,

If you have any questions about starting up with OJS, feel free to post
to the support forum at http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/ or contact the
team through the website at http://pkp.sfu.ca/ . We'd love to hear your
requirements for integration with IRs and other services.

Re: [CODE4LIB] e-journal publishing software

[Roy Tennant]

Sunny,
I've had experience with bepress.com's Digital Commons/Edikit combo for
journal publication at , although for
up-to-date information you should contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] at the
California Digital Library.

The best thing about this is the integration of the institutional repository
with journal production software. It is really quite seamless, since it's
simply a matter of hiding or exposing the journal production piece --
everything else (most notably the upload process) remains the same. The
benefit of this is that anyone using the IR already knows how to use large
chunks of the journal production system. I can attest to the simplicity and
power of the system, and about the only drawback I can think to note is the
cost. It has been very successful at the University of California, with
uploads to it pretty much every day (I know because I've kept my current
awareness search going there), which is a usage record of which any
institution would be proud. In sum, I highly recommend it if you can afford
it, and in the end I think it is probably worth it.
Roy

Anything specific you are asking? Looking for? We have installed OJS
successfully. We tested it in the library to make sure it behaved
predictably then passed it on to our campus IT because the Journal
Publishing was going to be a University rather than a Library Project.

It is fairly straight forward and most of the problems we had with it
were not with the software but administrative.

I listened to a BePress Sales pitch. Looked very *shiny* and combines
both of these quite nicely.

Well, their brief summary is at

Have you seen that yet?  They have also for Core and Link which I
haven't looked at at all yet.  For Search, your app sends a request,
their server returns a result set - as the aforementioned page says, it
basically seems to allow more customization of these 360 services than
is available via the stock web searches.  We want to use it to deliver
search results from multiple sources (at this point ILS and SerSol) on
one page.

 Alas, having been doing this (along with my partners, the four
 Yorkshiremen) since the Stone Age ...

 We used to arrange pebbles in the middle of road into the relevant
 patterns (we *dreamed* of being able to afford the wire for an
 abacus).
 Passing carts would then help "crunch" the numbers.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Code for Kosovo

[Karen Coyle]

Bess, I will point the folks there at OSS and the eIFL site. What's the
best first step for them to take? Is there anyone nearby that they can
talk to? Is there a way to take training to them?

I'll be trying to assess their technical expertise while I'm there,
which will give us more of an idea of what they might be able to do.

Hi, Karen.

You and I have chatted off list as well, but I also wanted to remind
everyone that eIFL-FOSS is about to start our first pilot programs for
open source ILS migrations. This will include training for systems
librarians from the pilot countries, and the pilot libraries will also
be generating huge amounts of documentation about their installation
and migration processes. For Karen in Kosovo, or anyone else who has
ties to libraries in the developing world, I can't urge you strongly
enough to try to participate in a larger programme trying to tackle
these issues. It is not a replacement for the broader open source
community (and indeed, as Josh mentions, the Koha list is a fantastic
resource), but it will supplement that support with training,
networking, and partnership opportunities that might not otherwise be
available.

Also, both of our Koha and Evergreen trainers for our upcoming
workshops are active in code4lib. I love you people!

Cheers,
Bess

I would love to recommend Koha, and I will definitely include Koha
in my

takes to install Koha. I actually tried installing it from the
instructions
on the Koha site and failed, so I *do* know they need more Unix
chops than
I've got. Not sayin' much.

I suspect that no matter what system they use, they will at least
initially
need quite a bit of hand-holding. That's a bit hard to do
considering both
the geographical and language barriers. But I  hope to come back
with more
of an idea of what they can do. I fear that I may not be leaving
them with
any solutions, just more complex questions.
