Hello librarians; would-be librarians; have-been librarians; and our favorite Latin lurker, et al., I'm searching for an email mentor who is willing to establish an email relationship to help install, build, and implement the Greenstone <www.greestone.org> solution for our collection of images, documents, and audio recordings at the history office where I work. I'll have a few questions from time to time and need to have them scrutinized, critiqued, and analyzed for further action. Please respond directly to me offline. I just received the Ian Witten book yesterday and can't wait to get started! * * * For those of you looking for a low-cost, no-cost solution for your library collection, the site might be of interest to you as well. The "Big 3" <so to speak> in this open-source realm are Fedora, Dspace, and Greenstone. I'll compile a summary and post it when it is appropriate. . . * * * I may have already posted this invitation once before on this list. . . I can't recall. . . You know, I don't remember being this forgetful when I was younger. . . <wink> I even bought a book once titled "90 Days to a SuperMemory" . . . I lost it on the 85th day. . . <geeez> Now I can't find it for sale anywhere. . . you know, come to think of it, maybe it was "90 Days to a SteelTrapMemory?" hmmmm. . . * * * Until that time. . . aloha y'all . . . Earl J. PS Any of you need a more laid-back avenue for your questions, comments, musings? Consider joining Lib101 . . . email me. It is not a competing site, it is a complementary site - Peter knows of it and has agreed to let me invite others from here from time to time <actually annually or less frequently>. I'm not asking you to quit LM_NET, I'm just inviting you to join another group of veterans and students who need a less formal avenue for their questions and discussions than LM_NET affords. Our groups doesn't have the expertise available here, but it *is* a more intimate and relaxed setting. Think of it as a small study room in this huge LM_NET library of 17,000+ practicing professionals, students, and interested parties. . . email me at the above email address. Okay, I'm really leaving now. . . aloha y'all. . . Earl J. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
