Playing with new Web This document explains and demonstrates how some of the features offered technologies in J-I SIS rev 1 by HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript can be used inside J-ISIS print formats Web-JISIS Documentation Web-JISIS Documentation for the first alpha release of Web-JISIS J-ISIS Reference Manual – 21 June 2014 Page 2 Foreword J-ISIS is a new multiplatform Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) ISIS that provides the same successful concepts and functionalities as the actual UNESCO CDS/ISIS FOR WINDOWS (WinISIS) software. J-ISIS removes many of WinISIS limitations and restrictions, uses a Client/Server architecture, is fully UNICODE, and benefits of the latest software developments. J-ISIS follows the CDS/ISIS concepts to keep the assets and experience of the users, such that users familiar with the CDS/ISIS software family will also be familiar with J- ISIS and will retrieve the same concepts. On the developer side, the main objective is to develop a long-term solution that would be modular, easy maintainable and extensible. One of the requirements was that J-ISIS should be usable by small libraries and document centers in developing countries that don't have Internet access, or the necessary IT infrastructure and knowledge for installing a Web server. They need an easy to install application that provides a rich user interface. J-ISIS uses the client/server pattern and is a desktop application that acts as a database server as well as a rich client application. J-ISIS is a rich client application written to communicate with a specifically designed database server that is accessible as a stand-alone application and over some local network. It can be used on a single host machine, over a small local network, without Internet access or a Web server installed. A second requirement was that the J-ISIS application should be usable as a rich desktop application as well as a Web application. Today, a number of technologies are vying to add interactivity to Web applications, technologies such as Ajax are becoming more mature and JavaScript libraries such as jQuery, YUI, GWT, Dojo, etc. provide GUI widgets that would allow to develop better interactivity for Web applications. Around the J- ISIS desktop application that includes a database server, Web-JISIS is a Web application that uses the Struts 2 framework, Sitemesh, Ajax and jQuery. Please note that the J-ISIS desktop and Web-JISIS applications are complementary. J-ISIS is not an Integrated Library System (ILS) as ABCD, it's a non relational (NoSQL) database management system that uses the ISIS concepts and that is particularly well suited for the storage and retrieval of bibliographic information. While it is possible to use J-ISIS for publishing an OPAC, Managing Acquisitions, Loan and Patrons/Users as it is done with WinISIS, there are some specific ILS modules under development. J-ISIS Databases and all related files such as indexes, FDT, FST, Worksheets, etc are fully UNICODE using UTF-8 encoding and are interoperable between different platforms (i.e. you can copy databases without conversion between Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. As CDS/ISIS, J-ISIS is a flexible Information Storage and Retrieval system designed specifically for the computerized management of structured non-numerical data bases. One of the major advantages offered by the generalized design of the system is that J-ISIS is able to manipulate an unlimited number of data bases each of which may consist of completely different data elements. Furthermore J-ISIS uses TCP/IP protocol to communicate between computers and is a database server that follows the Client/Server architecture. For advanced users, J-ISIS offers a wide range of programming facility allowing the development of specialized applications through the use of its powerful print formats. The J-ISIS embedded Web browser and Web server offer the possibility to use the new Web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript inside ISIS print formats. The Groovy programming language has replaced ISIS Pascal offering the same functionalities and much more. For real computer programmers, the ISIS_DLL is replaced by the J-ISIS core library (jisis-core.jar), which is interoperable between different platform and which provide all necessary tools for developing J-ISIS based applications. And we may say that J-ISIS is one of today‘s available software based on the CDS/ISIS technology. Acknowledgements. First of all, CDS/ISIS technology would not exist if Giampaolo Del Bigio would not have created the CDS/ISIS technology. The original CDS/ISIS ran on an IBM mainframe and was designed in the mid-1970s under Mr Giampaolo Del Bigio for UNESCO's Computerized Documentation System (CDS). It was based on the internal ISIS (Integrated Set of Information Systems) at the International Labour Organization in Geneva. For many years, Abel L Parker from BIREME/PAHO/WHO and now Director of SciELO has given strong support to CDS/ISIS technology. Ernesto Spinak from BIREME and Egbert de Smet of the University of Antwerp have always been key CDS/ISIS technology experts also providing their help to J-ISIS project. Also many people from the ISIS User community have provided constructive criticism, suggestions and took the time to test J-ISIS.

Introduction The workshop was arranged in order to bring together representatives of various organisations and projects directly or indirectly concerned with the UNIMARC format. Its purpose was to assess progress made in removing format , incompatibilities as a barrier to record exchange; to identify actions needed to sustain and continue this process, if necessary, and to discuss how to prevent similar format barriers from inhibiting future exchange of extended bibliographic information and the related electronic documents. The specific objectives were, through exchanging information on the results of the projects to date, to: • identify problems which have been resolved and to discuss impact and take-up of the solutions proposed • identify the impact on the format • discuss remaining problem areas, together with possible remedies • identify how to take actions forward into the electronic document environment. The programme for the day and the list of participants are given in Annex 1. Setting the context for the workshop, the Commission referred to the meeting held in Florence in 1991 at which the findings of the UNIMARC-EC study of 1990-91 were presented.

  • MODS: the Metadata Object Description Schema
    Rebecca S. Guenther 137 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PERSPECTIVES MODS: The Metadata Object Description Schema Rebecca S. Guenther Prefatory Commentary from the Editor Fortunately, the library world is evolving very rapidly. An alphabet soup of initiatives has surfaced in the last few years, many of which may be with us for a long time. These include SPARC, DLF, OAI, W3C, XML, RDF, OWL, DCMI . This article is about one of the more recent—MODS, Metadata Object Description Schema, and it may be help- ful to provide some background as to why it is important enough to include here. First, for the noncataloging specialist, what is it? In brief, MODS is a drastically simplified set of conventions for cataloging. It may be applied to anything, but many will see it as most useful in the Web environment. A second question: Why is it necessary? I would say primarily because of drawbacks in the Dublin Core. Rebecca Guenther is one of the designers of MODS. She has spent the greater part of her career at the Library of Congress in standards work, was present at the inception of the Dublin Core, and has been active in its long evolution. Her article, while giving an overview of MODS, also details the reasons why the Dublin Core is inadequate for describing complex digital objects, at least from the library perspective. There are three major causes that can be adduced for the less than enthusiastic adoption in the library world of the Dublin Core, especially in the arena where it should have been most successful: as a tool for describing Web resources by libraries.

  • Serials Acquisitions Glossary
    Serials Acquisitions Glossary 3rd edition, revised Serials Section, Acquisitions Committee Association for Library Collections & Technical Services 2005 Foreword The Serials Acquisitions Glossary is a publication of the Serials Section Acquisitions Committee of ALA’s Association for Library Collections & Technical Services. The glossary has a decided acquisi- tions perspective. The committee’s purpose was to gather and defi ne the current, practical, and col- loquial terms that underlie the communication among those librarians, vendors, and publishers who participate in the serials acquisitions chain. While some terms were taken from the ALA Glossary of Library and Information Science (1983) and Anglo American Cataloguing Rules, revised (1988), many were modifi ed to bring them into conformance with the focus, style, and currency of the committee- generated terms. The Acquisitions Committee trusts the Glossary will have broad appeal. Newcomers to the fi eld, both professionals and paraprofessionals, should fi nd it a helpful introduction to the terminology of serials and acquisitions work. Library staff in administration, cataloging, collection development, pub- lic services, and other areas can use it as a tool to improve communication with their colleagues in acquisitions and serials departments. Perhaps, too, those librarians, vendors, and publishers with long experience in serials and acquisitions will discover the glossary of value in avoiding confusion in their discourse. The Serials Acquisitions Glossary was reviewed by several vendors and publishers; their interest in the project was keen from the beginning and the Glossary benefi ted from their contributions. The assistance of other ALCTS committees is acknowledged. Suggestions from members of the Publisher/ Vendor Library Relations Committee, Resources Section Acquisitions Committee, and Serials Section Education Committee were especially benefi cial.

It is intended to provide a “state of the art” description of standards which might have specific application within the ARROW project. The document considers a wide range of metadata, identification, messaging and search‐ related standards, selected on the basis of their potential application to ARROW. The initial list of standards to be covered was provided by ARROW to EDItEUR, and was supplemented by EDItEUR with additional standards which appeared to be relevant. Which of these standards will actually be implemented within eth “ARROW system”, or precisely where they may fit into the overall scheme, is not currently known, but will become clearer as architectural and other issues are resolved. At least one further release of this document (incorporating comments from the wider membership of the ARROW time, as well as a mapping of standards to the final ARROW technical architecture)
