[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Evergreen Collection Development

[Wilkening, Chris]

Art,

 

There isn't a guide exactly...we set it up based on customer
specifications on a case-by-case basis. For those that want a generic
interface, we have a website they go through (www.bibz.com
<http://www.bibz.com/> )

 

I will ask around and see what I can find for you.

Hi Chris, 

I am not as acquainted with this model of selection but I think the key
would be the hooks back and forth. I would like good options for
patron-initiated requests as well but my notion is primarily that of a
selection tool for library staff to use. This would not preclude the use
of other systems and the more information that can flow between them the
better. Is there any kind of developer's guide available for how the
system at Brodart works now?
