Evergreen has a sibling named Fulfillment, an application made to allow for wide spread and low effort interlibrary loan among libraries. Join us as we discuss the history of its shared code with Evergreen, ongoing development, what makes it special and learn if it might help you expand sharing with other libraries, regardless of ILS.
Hey, what are you doing back there? Exposing some of Evergreen’s more useful features
Evergreen can do all sorts of neat tricks, and while the OpenSRF infrastructure provides programmatic access to its business logic, it can be difficult to use for a variety of reasons. We will show off a new RESTful OpenAPI interface that solves many of the complexity issues, is useful for 3rd party integrations and local custom development, and how it can be extended very simply to offer access to some of the hidden gems of Evergreen functionality.
Slouching towards BIBFRAME: An Overview of Current Possibilities
BIBFRAME is a shapeshifter: it is both the focus of serious testing and production projects by academic and national libraries and a mystery with an unclear path forward to adoption by public libraries… and Evergreen.
Galen Charlton will provide an overview of recent developments in BIBFRAME tools with a focus on what has evolved towards a practical use of the technology.
Attendees will leave the session with a better understanding of the state of BIBFRAME and more information to inform a broad community discussion of Library Linked Data and Evergreen.
