MARC Authority Records: an efficient way to find books online MARC Authority records are an effective, though underused, way to find books online. My new web site, bookgenius.org, performs Z39.50 federated keyword searches using pazpar2, ranks the subject headings, then searches again against the most frequently occurring subject headings. It uses Zebra, custom database programming, and Ajax to display LOC authority records in a graphical tree. My inspiration: the search strategies in "The Oxford Guide to Library Research." http://bookgenius.org How to scrape statistics when you can't eat raw fish. The library world waits with baited breath for all the database vendors to become SUSHI compliant to simplify the gathering of electronic resource statistics. Our libraries decided not to wait, so with a little application of Perl and SQL we are scraping by, gather data directly from the vendor web pages. A brief tour of what we did so we could have those all important numbers. http://www.cclaflorida.org
