Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 79%. Dew Point: 20.0�C. Pressure: 30.25 in 1024.3 hPa (Steady). 17:18 brendan morning 17:39 cait morning brendan 17:40 brendan HEYA CIAT 17:40 brendan heya cait (sorry about the caps) ;) 17:40 cait np :) 17:42 cait brendan: will I meet you at Kohacon? 17:42 brendan I won't be making it - my wife is pregnant - so I'm going to use vacation time for the arrival of the little girl :) 17:44 cait oooh, ok, that's ar really good excuse :) 18:02 jcamins_a Hello all. 18:02 jcamins_a Does anyone happen to know if Koha already has the ability to use local cover images? 18:02 cait hi jcamins 18:02 cait no, I think it's not possible at the moment 18:02 brendan like a common bookplate? 18:03 brendan or you want to load your own per item book jacket 18:03 jcamins_a The latter. 18:03 brendan not at the moment 18:03 jcamins_a Although a common bookplate is another good idea. My list for "good ideas" just keeps getting longer. 18:03 cait you could store the covers and show them via xslt 18:03 brendan I've seen people do a replace for "no image found" - using css 18:04 jcamins_a cait: ooh, I could, couldn't I? 18:04 brendan http://catalog.marlboro.edu 18:04 cait we have a project where we want to show a preview to the digitization 18:04 cait i think you could :) but there are not features to upload the cover or something like that at the moment 18:04 jcamins_a brendan: that was done with CSS? 18:04 brendan yes 18:04 jcamins_a CSS is amazing. :) 18:04 cait looks nice 18:04 brendan let see if I can find you the css 18:05 cait I like the color 18:05 cait what is a book plate? 18:06 brendan span.no-image 18:06 brendan { 18:06 brendan background-image: url(*******/opac-tmpl/prog/images/Library_bookplate_tiny.GIF); 18:06 brendan width: 55px; 18:06 brendan height: 75px; 18:06 brendan } 18:09 jcamins_a brendan: Thanks! 18:09 jcamins_a cait: a bookplate is the "ex libris" that libraries put in their books. 18:09 cait ah 18:09 cait but why show it in the catalog? 18:11 jcamins_a Because it's more attractive than "No image found." 18:11 jcamins_a And to remind people what library catalog they're looking at. 18:12 cait ok 18:12 cait :) 18:19 jcamins_a I guess the right way to set up local jacket images would be to add a "jacket image manager"-type page, and a syspref that optionally told the XSLT to pull a cover image. 18:21 jcamins_a Or to add something in the XSLT that can parse 856s with format type jpeg, or whatever. 18:21 cait hm good idea 18:25 brendan yeah another great addition would be for the images to be pulled from multiple sites - so if amazon cover found - pull that. no amazon cover, check google, no cover at google, check locally 18:26 jcamins_a Yeah, that would be my ideal. 18:26 jcamins_a Although we'd need the order to be user-configurable, since I would want it to pull locally first. 18:28 brendan yeah - and a good resource for pulling ISSN jackets (if possible - instead of just using the isbn api's) 18:29 jcamins Does anyone provide jackets by ISSN? 18:29 jcamins I guess probably syndetics does. 18:40 brendan @wunder 93117 18:40 munin brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 20.7�C (11:46 AM PDT on August 21, 2010).
