Re: [CODE4LIB] API for book descriptions?

Christina , Some publishers supply information that you could harvest. For instance Cambridge University Press has a Data Shop that sends ONIX metadata. http://datashop.cambridge.org/ If a lot of the works are from a particular publisher something like this might help. David Bigwood dbigw...@h

[CODE4LIB] COinS

Are COinS still of any value? Or should I clean-up my pages by getting rid of them? I haven't heard them mentioned in years. Thanks, David Bigwood dbigw...@lpi.usra.edu Regional Planetary Image Facility/Library Lunar and Planetary Institute https://www.facebook.com/R

[CODE4LIB] ORCID

ORCID provides an API that can be queried by ORCID or institution name (I think). Has anyone written code to query the API on a regular basis to pull down articles by their faculty? Is it something you'd care to share? I've not the faintest idea of a way to write an API query. Thanks, David Big

Re: [CODE4LIB] file sharing/transfer

Personally I've used Filemail and found it easy and sufficient. Not sure if it would meet HIPPA requirements. At work we have, but I don't use, something else. The IT folks have it set-up with a 2 GB file size limit. As a photo librarian I bump into that too often. David Bigwood dbigw...@lpi.

We use KeePass on a shared drive. It's free and stores the encrypted passwords. It doesn't paste them into the login forms or even generate hard-to-crack passwords. It's free and meets our minimum needs. IT decided this is what we needed. David Bigwood (he,him,his) dbigw...@lpi.usra.edu Planet

Re: [CODE4LIB] New WorldCat.org and "Web Visibility" product

I was happy to see my library under the All Libraries tab. Since we were not FirstSearch/WorldCat Discovery subscribers our library didn't appear at all under the old version. However, the link to the full text used to be visible on the full details page. Now it's buried under the Show More Info

[CODE4LIB] PGP

[CODE4LIB] Fingerprint Tool Suggestions

Open for suggestions for a fingerprinting tool. I think that's what they are called. We are copying NASA imagery to make available to the public. They send us a hard drive with about 10,000 images and we copy them to a drive then return the original. I'd like a tool that would compare the 2 dr
