[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Cover art in RSS Feeds

[Terran McCanna]

I'm not sure if this will help, but I've been messing around with using the
supercat RSS feed to show the new book lists in our OPAC (see
http://gapines.org for the links to each library's new books page - I
haven't worked on modifying the RSS output yet). It's not completely where
I want it to be yet, but I did change the code to use the TCN instead of
the ISBN to get the cover images. You can see the changes I made at:

ATOM2XHTML.xml
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_YSoBdcQ5kZTFU1c2dFUkdkOGc/view?usp=sharing

MARC21slim2ATOM.xml
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_YSoBdcQ5kZWkVxOXllRmJSUU0/view?usp=sharing

I particularly want to include the date added to the catalog with each
result, but I haven't figured that out yet.
