the library catalogue in google desktop

Back to Innovation Directory Listing

This entry has its roots in an informal project to decouple the Library Catalogue from the Integrated Library System (ILS). The goal of the project is to create a sort of “mirror” of the library catalogue, a sustainable replica of the contents of the catalogue while providing conduit to dynamically pull in “state” information, such as the circulation status of an item.
