I'd have to agree. OAI-PMH is so simple that even as poor a programmer as I

No need for a module -- that would be using a chain saw to cut butter.
To return to an earlier suggestion, this is precisely where just retrieving
something via good ol' http is easiest. An OAI-PMH request is just a
request that looks exactly like the output from a really simple HTML form.

I should have included this in my previous message but here is the code I'm

Thank you all for your advice!

Hi everyone,
I figure since registration has just opened for the conference that now would

While I agree with Kyle that it's ultimately the "content" that's

Plenty of good advice in this thread but don't be afraid to write a
harvester yourself that meets your needs. It's good to avoid reinventing
the wheel, but OAI-PMH is a really easy protocol to work with -- it's the
same difficulty as retrieving a bunch of web pages. For simple jobs, it's

There's always the option of capturing a WARC of the newspaper as the
preservation master for dark storage, and generating PDFs for access via
your CMS. If you're in ContentDM already, then a PDF would be much easier
to use (both on the back and frontends).
The provenance metadata of WARC is too

Agreed, don't focus too much on preserving the presentation for an online
newspaper. The text and images are important, but the layout isn't so
important.

There's someone in this thread who would know more about the mechanics
behind NET::OAI::Harvester->new, but from what you've told us so far, it's
possible that that call is failing to return a harvester object for some
reason. This is consistent with perl telling you $harvester is undefined
later
You could also try the EAD list if you need more examples.
