[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Demo Servers and Amazon Web Services images

Hi All, As part of of the KCLS IMLS grant project, Brian Feifarek of The Galecia Group has been maintaining two live demo servers as well as several virtual images that we kept up on the Amazon cloud. Because funding ends for that grant in October, I wanted to see whether we needed to find a way

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Symphony extraction scripts

Hi All, We've talked about finding a place to put data extraction scripts for the various ILSs and I don't think we decided anything yet. Can we upload zip files to the wiki? I ask because what I have here is a zip file that contains three files that can be used for extracting data from your Sym

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen cataloging with OCLC Connexion client

Hi Trisha, We are a consortium of over 70 public and school libraries, and provide centralized cataloging for our member libraries on OCLC, loading the bibs to Evergreen with the batch loader in the client. We generally work with the Connexion client, doing batch searches and working offline.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Symphony extraction scripts

Hi, This is not an area I'm an expert in at all, however over the years I've heard concerns from data migration specialists about publicly posting their data extraction methods and migration scripts as they were worried that the proprietary companies might sue them. I have also heard from people w

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Printing in Evergreen

Hi Everyone, I know this topic has come up recently, so I'm hoping folks will have an interest in my question. Has anyone had success with the Dymo 450 printing directly from Evergreen without using Microsoft Word or any other software? And if you have, are you able to set the Dymo to use fonts

Each vendor probably has a slightly differnt 'Third Party Export Add-on' policy that will come into play. At first blush, I suspect vendors will not make a distinction between creating/using a tool and publishing such a tool/method openly. It's rare in my experience for a Vendor to restrict re-d

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Life lessons

When Evergreen was developed in 2006, time was of the essence and staff in the various Georgia PINES libraries were not always clear on how features should work. I know because I was part of the original testing of Evergreen. Testing was done on a piecemeal basis and many features didn't get fully

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** Re: Printing in Evergreen

For whatever it's worth, based on Dan's advice a couple years ago, our libraries also use the Dymo 450 for spine label printing. We ran Evergreen 2.0 from 2.0.1 through 2.0.10-ish before we upgraded to 2.2 and beyond. As Dan notes, those printer setting options do exist in 2.0. So, safe to s
