[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Populating a demo with records

[Lori Bowen Ayre]

Jill,

Some of the existing community demo servers have a set of data that you can
use.  In the case of the ones maintained by Brian Feifarek, that data is
refreshed 2x per week (I think).  However, we have set up instances
specifically for libraries to use on occasion.  That way you can either use
the demo data we have or your own data and it won't all get wiped out each
week.

Let me know if that would be of interest. The demos are set up on the
Amazon cloud so it is fairly easy to create one for you.
