[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** RE: Publication patterns

[Mary Llewellyn]

Tim, 

 

That list looks wonderful! I see it's only to be used for testing and
training purposes. Any plans to make it "real"? 

 

I have a question about a few of the titles. Why is there more than one
entry for some of them? Some examples: Glamour, Newsweek (4 entries), The
Reader's digest, Popular mechanics. Were these patterns from different
libraries? Or were the exceptions from the Horizon patterns copied in
separately?

 

Thanks,

 

Mary

Eventually, I'm hoping to share prediction patterns among our consortium.
What I have done is somthing very simple you can see here.

 

http://intranet.cwmars.org/serial_predictions

 

People would be able to simply copy and past the patterns in the Evergreen
client.  However, if someone could do more developement I think there are
probably much better ways to share this within Evergreen libraries.

Hi Tara,

Thanks for your reply. I've already figured out the prediction for serials
with 5 and 10 copies a year.

(for 5 times a year it's:
5 times a year, restarting issue numbers and continuous Volume:
["2","0","8","1","a","vol.","b","no.","u","5","v","r","i","(year)","j","(mon
th)","w","b","x","01","y","om09","y","om12"]

5 times a year continuous numbering and no Volume:
["2","0","8","1","a","no.","u","5","v","c","i","(year)","j","(month)","w","b
","x","01","y","om09","y","om12"])

We have a whole list of different patterns. I have to do some translation
because all the comments are now in Dutch. I could do that this week and
send it to you. The next challenge is 7 and 8 issues a year...

Kind regards,

Mieke

Hi,

Sorry for the delay in replying...

I can't speak to this specific prediction pattern. I'll be working
more on predictions in the following weeks, if I figure out anything
useful I'll reply.

Currently there is no standard for sharing serials prediction
patterns. A few of us (some Sitka, KCLS folks and Chris Cormack from
Koha) had a really good conversation about this at the pub, and
hopefully the Evergreen and Koha communities can figure out a way for
libraries to share these. Are you interested in helping figure this
out?

Cheers,
Tara

them, but could not find anything on the website. We already made a lot of
different usable patterns, so maybe we can contribute.
