Z3950 Server, MARC::Record, how to build a record for Koha
by Joshua Ferraro 26 Aug '03

26 Aug '03

Hi everyone, I have been working on a Z3950 server for Koha and I am finally at the point where the server works, and I need some help refining the records that I am generating (eventually I will build in support for multiple formats; but for now I would be pretty excited if I could get it to generate "good" MARC) Basically, the Z3950 server uses SimpleServer, which has a fetch handler subroutine to fetch one record(the present handler will call fetch_handler as often as necessary for the client's request). So...here is a snipit of code from my script where I attempt to generate a MARC record. When I run the resulting string from this code through Paul's dumpmarc.pl it complains about the leader. MARC::Record experts: any ideas, suggestions as to how to set the leader? Any other suggestions? (BTW: this is my first ever Perl script, so please don't laugh too hard:)) Thanks, Joshua sub fetch_handler { my ($args) = @_; my $offset = $args->{OFFSET}; $offset -= 1; ## because $args->{OFFSET} 1 = record #1 chomp (my $bibid = $bib_list[$offset]); ## Not sure about this my $dbh = C4::Context->dbh; my $sql_query = "SELECT tag, subfieldcode, subfieldvalue FROM marc_subfi eld_table where bibid=?"; my $sth_get = $dbh->prepare("$sql_query"); $sth_get->execute($bibid); ## Build the record: my $rec = MARC::Record->new(); while (my @data=$sth_get->fetchrow_array) { my $tag = $data[0]; my $subfieldcode = $data[1]; my $subfieldvalue = $data[2]; my $field = MARC::Field->new( $tag,'','', $subfieldcode => $subfieldvalu e, ); $rec->append_fields($field); ## build the marc string and put into $record my $record = $rec->as_usmarc(); $args->{RECORD} = $record; }

opac-user.pl
by Owen Leonard 23 Aug '03

23 Aug '03

In opac-user.pl, in the default template, there's a column marked 'Current Loan', with values 'yes' or 'no' (<TMPL_IF NAME="status">) What does that mean? In the vanilla template for the same file, there's this block of markup: <TMPL_IF NAME="renewable"> <A HREF='/cgi-bin/koha/opac-renew.pl?from=opac_user&item=<TMPL_VAR NAME="itemnumber">&bornum=<TMPL_VAR NAME="borrowernumber">' class="padded">Renew</A> <TMPL_ELSE> Not renewable </TMPL_IF> ...but this always returns 'Not renewable'. What condition needs to be met for it to be renewable? Or is something not working? -- Owen ---- Nelsonville Public Library Koha 2.0.0-pre2-R2

Hi all, I think the LITA forum can be interesting for readers here playing with Koha. We are a part of "collaborative projects in the digital age" aren't we ? It seems that yes, as I read in the program : http://www.ala.org/Content/NavigationMenu/LITA/LITA_Events_and_Programs/LIT… : *Open Communication for Open Source Software Development: The Koha Experience* /Presenter: / Brenda Chawner, Senior Lecturer, School of Information Management, Victoria University of Wellington Does anyone from Koha project know who is Brenda ??? Does anyone from Koha mailing lists intend to go to forum ? PS : i'm on vacation... now, and be back in Sept, 2. ORIGINAL MAIL posted on PERL4LIB mailing list : ============= 2003 LITA National Forum "Putting Technology Into Practice" is the theme for the sixth annual Library and Information Technology Association (LITA) National Forum, to be held October 2 - 5, 2003 at the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside, Norfolk, VA.

David Lankes, Executive Director of the Information Institute of Syracuse and Assistant Professor at Syracuse University's School of Information Studies, will speak on the current state of digital reference services. Liz Bishoff, Executive Director of the Colorado Digitization Program, will discuss collaborative projects in the digital age. The closing session features David Seaman, Director of the Digital Library Federation, speaking on major trends in digital libraries. More than 25 concurrent sessions provide a wealth of practical information. Topics include virtual reference consortia, digital library collection management, database-driven websites, metadata standards (including OAI), XML databases, open source portal management, cross-database search projects, managing access to GIS repositories, usability studies, and much more. In addition, for the first time, the 2003 Forum includes poster sessions, presenting unique technology applications that solve specific problems, such as digital rights management in the academic environment, PDA use in health sciences libraries, and link maintenance and repair. Add to the Forum experience with a choice of preconference workshops, a full day on "The Library as a Place in the Digital Age," or a half day on either "Handheld Library Programs: New Levels of Service" or "Creating, Managing, and Using Open Source Software in Libraries."
