hello kados |
| 12:19 |
|
paul |
seems you're at office now, as you write mails ;-) |
| 12:25 |
|
kados |
hi paul |
| 12:25 |
|
kados |
:-) |
| 12:25 |
|
kados |
yes, I'm at the office, and it's a slow monday for once |
| 12:25 |
|
kados |
(probably librarians are catching up after the holiday :-)) |
| 12:25 |
|
paul |
holiday ? |
| 12:26 |
|
kados |
thanksgiving |
| 12:27 |
|
paul |
what do you (kados) eat for thanksgiving ? |
| 12:28 |
|
paul |
really ? i've read somewhere that some fast-food just produced a new hamburger, called "heart break ham", with 8000 calories in just 1 hamburger !!! |
| 12:28 |
|
paul |
they are crazy... |
| 12:28 |
|
kados |
wow |
| 12:29 |
|
paul |
(it was in US, of course, but can't remember where exactly) |
| 12:30 |
|
paul |
kados : toins ask me if thanksgiving is a christian holiday ? I don't think, but you'll have the correct answer |
| 12:31 |
|
owen |
It's origins are technically Christian, but it's now non-denominational. |

hi owen |

Hi paul |
| 12:42 |
|
owen |
Thanksgiving is a very carnivorous holiday, so vegetarians may feel left out of the traditional festivities. |
| 12:55 |
|
hdl |
Traditional dish is the turkey isn't it ? |
| 12:57 |
|
owen |
Yes |
| 12:57 |
|
hdl |
was it not for the first pilgrims to Thanks Lord for their arrival on this new ground ? |
| 12:58 |
|
hdl |
(There is/was... ( 10years ago ) a living museum near Boston very interesting... |

| 13:01 |
|
hdl |
yea. |

kados : about popularity, a quick question : |
| 13:33 |
|
paul |
melm 952$s popularity means it's related to items. |
| 13:33 |
|
paul |
shouldn't it be related to sum(all items of this biblio) ? |
| 13:46 |
|
btoumi |
kados are u around? |
| 13:50 |
|
kados |
hi btoumi |
| 13:51 |
|
kados |
paul: yes, ideally |
| 13:51 |
|
kados |
paul: but I didn't have time |
| 13:51 |
|
btoumi |
how are u kados |
| 13:51 |
|
kados |
good, and you>? |
| 13:52 |
|
btoumi |
same for me , can u tell me where do u find some french ? perhaps we forget |
| 13:52 |
|
paul |
I just wrote a small script for OPAC, showing books by popularity. It does not rely on zebra, and the patron can select 1 branch only, 1 itemtype only, 3/6/12 months acquisitions only |
| 13:53 |
|
kados |
btoumi: when adding a member, the 'Mr., Mrs.' salutation titles |
| 13:53 |
|
kados |
paul: cool |
| 13:53 |
|
btoumi |
kados right we forget to change |
| 13:53 |
|
btoumi |
i will change on cvs |
| 13:56 |
|
btoumi |
and commit kados : |
| 13:57 |
|
paul |
btoumi : probably a good candidate for a systempref... |
| 13:58 |
|
paul |
(because even in french, christian libraries, for exemple, will be happy to add "Father", "Sister"... and research libraries will add "Prof."...) |
| 13:58 |
|
paul |
not only in french probably ;-) |
| 13:59 |
|
btoumi |
sure : borrowerstype for examples |
| 14:00 |
|
paul |
BorrowersTitle would be better |
| 14:00 |
|
paul |
BorrowersTitles being the best ;) |
| 14:01 |
|
btoumi |
yes not type |
| 14:15 |
|
kados |
IMO it would even be better to have a new table |
| 14:16 |
|
kados |
for SaultationTitle |
| 14:16 |
|
kados |
so a library can define for themselves what are approapriate values |
| 14:19 |
|
paul |
kados: why do we need a table ? A systempref is enough. |
| 14:19 |
|
paul |
I mean, it contains the list of title separated by commas, and a split builds the array, for the template. |
| 14:19 |
|
paul |
btoumi: you understood what i explained here, or planned to have a systempref just to choose between french & english titles ? |
| 14:21 |
|
btoumi |
paul : a systeme preference to have french title or english title |
| 14:22 |
|
kados |
paul: a syspref is slower to read because it must be parsed in perl as well, whereas a read from mysql is quite fast ... but either way it's OK |
| 14:22 |
|
paul |
BorrowersTitles being a list of avaialble titles for the library : M,Mme,Mlle,Docteur |
| 14:22 |
|
kados |
syspref is easier for the library to understand how to set up also |
| 14:22 |
|
paul |
i don't think splitting a perl systempref is slower than reading X lines from mySQL |
| 14:22 |
|
kados |
:-) |
| 14:22 |
|
paul |
right. |
| 14:22 |
|
paul |
(with mod_perl, i'm sure it's faster even) |
| 14:23 |
|
kados |
(true) |
| 14:23 |
|
btoumi |
paul: it's a system preference to record the title u want |
| 14:24 |
|
paul |
yep |

Anyone know why virtual shelves store things by itemnumber rather than biblionumber? |
| 18:12 |
|
chris |
its a good question |
| 18:12 |
|
chris |
i cant think of any reason why ... other than perhaps they wanted only a certain type/format |
| 18:12 |
|
chris |
altho, when you view it it just shows the biblio anyway |
| 18:13 |
|
chris |
nope, cant think why its done that way |
| 18:13 |
|
owen |
I've seen a lot of virtual shelves with blank entries, and I'm wondering if they're due to items having been deleted since being added to a virtual shelf. |
| 18:15 |
|
chris |
yeah, that certainly sounds plausible |
| 18:15 |
|
owen |
The OPAC seems to be smart enough not to display the blank entries, but not the intranet |
| 18:16 |
|
chris |
wonder if thats just a template thing? .. i guess you want them to display on the intranet .. but with some way to remove them |
| 18:16 |
|
chris |
so you can clean up |
| 18:17 |
|
owen |
Except that it looks like deletions work via itemnumber (since there's no other primary key available) |
| 18:18 |
|
chris |
right |
| 18:19 |
|
chris |
itd be good if on the intranet, it showed the itemnumbers for the blank ones, then you could check the deleteditems table, to find out what they were maybe |
| 18:25 |
|
owen |
I don't find the item numbers in our deleteditems table in the case that I examined, but I wonder if our deleteditems data is accurate...I seem to recall a bug we encountered in that department. |
