Are there discovery systems out there that attempt this? It would be great to 
use all the work that has gone into these vocabs to improve end-user 
experience, not by telling them to click a "see also" link but by doing that 
work for them in some way.

[CODE4LIB] Innovation Survey for Library Pipeline

[Joseph Montibello]

Hello,

Library Pipeline’s Innovation in LIS committee is conducting a survey to gather 
information about innovation activities in libraries (of all types).  We’re 
aiming to understand the people that are building innovations, the strategies 
and resources that have benefited their work, and the barriers they’ve 
encountered.  

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/7W665XW


In case you haven’t heard of us, Library Pipeline 
 is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting 
structural changes by providing opportunities, funding, and services that 
improve the library as an institution and librarianship as a profession.  

Please take a few minutes to complete the short list of questions we’ve 
compiled.  We will be sharing the data we collect and our analysis.  
Ultimately, we will use this inform LP’s efforts to support library- and 
librarian-driven innovation and entrepreneurship.  We appreciate your 
willingness to share your experience and insights.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Whatever Happened to the Northeast Code4Lib?

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi,

Yale hosted a C4L New England event a couple of years back 
(http://wiki.code4lib.org/NECode4lib_2012_Home). I was on the planning 
committee - it was fun and I know I learned a lot. It was good to have a local 
event that folks could go to.

The nice thing is that for an event like this to happen, we only need a few 
people willing to work on it, and a little luck in finding an institution to 
back it. (And of course a two-day event like the one we had at Yale is by no 
means the right/best/only format - there are lots of other ways that Code4Lib 
could take shape in New England / the northeast.)

Re: [CODE4LIB] NCIP path on a Millennium server

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi,

We run Innovative Millennium and it supports NCIP requests as part of our 
BorrowDirect consortium, which is mostly non-Innovative libraries. (The 
product/addon we bought from III might be a modified version of the Direct 
Consortial Borrowing product that Kyle mentions.) It’s probably more accurate 
to say that the product supports a subset of NCIP - certainly not the whole 
standard. 

I’ve done a bunch of playing with our NCIP responder. If you have something 
similar from III, you should really check whether NCIP requests will be 
accepted and acted on from anywhere. It took us a while to get protection in 
place so that we’d only accept NCIP requests from IP addresses we whitelisted. 
The URL where RESTful NCIP requests are accepted (from our whitelisted IP 
addresses) is

http://129.170.20.40/iii/nciprelais/Restful

and I did all my testing by using curl/wget to POST the xml-formatted NCIP 
request to that URL. We did have a specific port assigned, but that disappeared 
when we set up access controls.

Hope this helps,

Re: [CODE4LIB] OAuth2 and Sierra Innovative

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi,

Out of my depth, but maybe something like this?

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10025698/authentication-on-google-oauth2-keeps-returning-invalid-grant

In this case, the invalid grant is returned when you attempt to exchange an 
authorization code for tokens, and then attempt to do that again instead of 
using the access token that was returned in the first exchange.

Hope this helps,

Re: [CODE4LIB] Retrieving ISSN using a DOI

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi,

I think that crossref might still be able to get you what you want. I 
registered for a free account and then looked at their API docs 
(http://help.crossref.org)

http://www.crossref.org/openurl?pid=joseph.montibe...@dartmouth.edu&id=doi:10.1103/PhysRev.47.777&noredirect=true

So, given the DOI you can get back an XML response that includes ISSN (assuming 
that there is one in the record retrieved). Could you do something AJAXy to 
make this request, then parse XML to get the ISSN out of the response?

There’s probably ten better ways to do it than this, but maybe this will spark 
some ideas?

Re: [CODE4LIB] phone app for barcode-to-textfile?

Hi,

Not sure if this would be worth a look. Does Codabar and Code39. It's a
wireless barcode scanner capable of pairing via bluetooth with my iPhone
4S (can't verify that it works with other iOS things).

http://bit.ly/motorolacs3000

Acts as a wireless keyboard so it can easily scan barcodes into a text
file.

Yes.

I know these are rhetorical questions but each of them bears repeating.
And to this last point, I would underscore that the need was first felt,
then openly discussed in this channel and acted upon.

I can't speak for anyone else. I know that I've been in (non-code4lib)
situations where I *was* that unobservant, that I missed what was going on
in front of me because I was focused on something else. I've also
experienced hearing things and, based on the reactions, believing that it
was non-offensive, not even questioning whether it was offensive, only to
find out later that several of the people present were very offended (for
reasons that made sense to me when I gave it some thought).

Also, many such incidents are by their nature not happening in large group
situations, and not talked about openly by anyone involved.

Not to knock the community, but I think that along with being very
supportive and friendly, we are very analytical and detail-oriented. If an
incident at code4lib had bothered me personally and I hadn't felt
comfortable to make a public issue of it at the time, putting it on a wiki
page and asking the community to analyze it probably wouldn't appeal to
me. On the other hand, I don't want to squash the idea as a bad one.
Making the uncomfortable event publicly known, even in an anonymous and
no-consequences kind of way, might be empowering to some. YMMV.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Mentorship Program

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi all,

I wouldn't want to crowd out women who are looking for this sort of
mentoring, but I (and other men) might be interested in being a mentee[1].
The flip side of MJ's logic (which I agree with) is that no men in the
pool of mentees means fewer opportunities for women to be mentors.

Just my two cents.
Joe Montibello, MLIS
Library Systems Manager

603.646.9394
joseph.montibe...@dartmouth.edu

[1] dumb aside on the word mentee - from Wikipedia, "The person in receipt
of mentorship may be referred to as a protégé (male), a protégée (female),
an apprentice or, in recent years, a mentee." Protégé(é) appeals to me
more than mentee, but maybe that's because my brain jumps from mentee to
mentees to Mentos. I don't want to volunteer to be dropped into a bottle
of soda! Also, I don't have enough linguistics/language history to know if
protégée is a female derivative of the male form, which would probably be
undesirable.

If something like this were implemented, maybe waiting until after the
voting was done would be helpful. Diversify the program by looking at what
was selected in voting and then filling gaps as perceived by the program
committee.

And/or having the committee/group/whatever it is that's working on a
policy now participate in that process.

Anyway, just my two cents.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Recommendations for a teaching OPAC?

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi,

When you talk about the OPAC, do you want them to be working with a full
ILS or really just the front-end piece? If it's just the patron-facing
search, you could probably do worse than to install Blacklight.  It
probably doesn't really meet the "simple" criteria - there's a lot more to
it than I could talk about.  But getting it out of the box, turned on, and
searching against a few records is something that you and students could
probably manage. I've got a year of unix/ssh/command line experience and
with a bit of mucking about, googling, and asking for help I was able to
get a local (non-production) instance up and running, so it's definitely
easy enough.

By the way, this looks like an awesome survey class. The headaches it
would have saved me if someone had covered this stuff 10 years ago when I
was in school, instead of teaching me how to search DIALOG!

 Hi all,

 I'm interested in analyzing the list archives with a goal of studying
how
 concepts move through the list over time, the relationship (or
 non-relationship) between discussions in the list and eventual
 implementations and practices in the broader library community, the
 zeitgeist over time of an active development community, etc.  I'm not
sure
 about the tools and products at the moment, but the outcomes would be
 anonymous and there would be no e-mail harvest of any kind, especially

of
 what I'm thinking about is to generate word clouds that could give a
 snapshot of what's going on over some defined period of time, or
concepts
 most closely associated with a particular term, or an overlap analysis
 against one of the library science databases.  Stuff like that.

 Eric Lease Morgan, the list admin, can provide an archive of the list,
but
 I wanted to check with all of you before I asked for it.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Preserving hyperlinks in conversion from Excel/googledocs/anything to PDF (was Any ideas for free pdf to excel conversion?)

[Joseph Montibello]

Hi,

Could you use perl's PDF::Create?
(http://search.cpan.org/~markusb/PDF-Create-1.06/lib/PDF/Create.pm)

Alternatively, on a bash command line I've used a couple of commands to
print a given file to a pdf:

enscript -q --margins=::10: -L 60 -B -p "outputfile.ps" "inputfile.txt"
ps2pdfwr "outputfile.ps" "outputfile.pdf"

This took a file and used enscript to make it a .ps file, then converted
ps to pdf with ps2pdfwr.  This worked fine for plain text, but I can't
swear that it will work with a bunch of hyperlinks. 

Hope this helps!
