PhpMylibrary 2.0.0

Oct 3, 2002

	- The theme management is now active. You can just download and use theme for use in
	your library.
	
	- The phpmylibrary software now runs with ADODB in it. Meaning you can use other databases
	as well like postgresql, oracle, mssql, etc. without changing the phpmylibrary code.
	


PhpMyLibrary-1.04b

15 May 2002

	- More Library of Congress MARC sample at polerio/import/LOC/ directory.

	- Be noted that you don't have to eliminate the Import Record Link on your
	PhpMyLibrart Menu at your left side panel because the program now recognizes
	who's the use is currently logged in. If you're an administrator, you will be able
	to manage the PhpMyLibrary, meaning you can delete, edit, add or import data.

6 May 2002

	- There are more options you can customize at polerio/phpmylibrary/config/conf.php, 
	do open it for explanation.
	
	- The Cataloging Module has been done. You can now add your own MARC.
	
	- The Holdigns Module has been done. Although it has some problem. The 
	problem is, it can't search the whole od it, meaning, if  you have two 
	accession number the second one is the one which will appear. If you have 5,
	the 2 to 5 accession number which will appear. On the next version I may be able to
	debug it.
	
	- Good news. ISIS users can now import thier data on the PhpMylibrary software.
	The first thing you should do is to know what kind of tagging you have. 
	The decribe tags can be seen here in polerio/lang/en/MARC.php 
	Be noted that the PhpMylibrary search on the tags:
	
	1. 100 author
	2. 245 title				
	3. 260 publisher
	4. 630 subject
	5. 650 subject
	6. 500 notes
	
	If your ISIS don't follow USMARC tagging, you would not have this kind of tags. 
	By the way I have a sample ISIS .iso file taken from MST.iso at polerio/import/ISIS/
	directory. To compare it in USMARC open polerio/import/LOC/ directory to see the 
	difference. Be noted that ISIS generated output is different from Library of Congress
	MARC output.
	
	The difference. In Lib.of Congress MARC Output, the MARC is separated by ASCII characters
	chr(29), chr(30), chr(31). With the PhpMyLibrary know already the record because it will
	only locate for a chr(29) char to extract all MARC file. chr(29) Record Separator, 
	chr(30) Field Separator, chr(31) Subfields separator. 
	
	In ISIS the .iso file or the MARC output of ISIS separates the record on a user-desired
	separator that's why I have made an option on Import MARC module. To put a value for
	record separator, field separator, and subfield separator. Sometimes it user $ for 
	subfiled separator, sometimes ^ sign. Thus the first thing you should know is to 
	determine what kind of separator that your ISIS generated. Then after determining it 
	encode it in Import MARC Module of PhpMylibrary. For instance, from what I've imported, 
	and from what I've used as default, ## as Record separator, # Field Separator, and ^ 
	for subfield separator. You ISIS may have some separator different from this, thus
	you must know it before importing data. Important Note: If things go wrong. Install
	phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net software as this handles database online. Thus if you have this
	if you got messy recordm then just drop it and reinstall it.
	
	Very long isn't it. It's already 1 o'clock in the afternoon in our country Philippines
	and still I'm here. Really this is very long. Can I just end it. Hgggh,.. 
	
	Continue.. 
	
	About the ISIS file. In ISIS file as I mentioned has different kind of separators. To view
	example visit polerio/import/ISIS and  polerio/import/LOC. Now, after realizing the 
	file import/export standards then we go on tagging. Tags is like 100, 111, 000, 050 etc.
	Please be noted that some ISIS don't follow USMARC tagging. Librarians used something else
	as what I have in my polerio/import/ISIS file. It's from CSWCD Univ. of Phils.  College of Social Work and 
	Social Development Library Diliman , with which I worked as student assistant for two semester + 1
	summer I think. I get some copy of ISIS .iso file from them to see the difference from what
	I've got from the MARC of http://catalog.loc.gov, Library of Congress Library Catalog. 
	
	Knowing all this, and after viewing the ISIS and LOC directory polerio/import/(assuming that
	you look at it) We know now that MARC sharing is possible. But a programmer is needed to
	do some if and else coding, if ISIS do this, if LOC do this. Now our problem is ( are you 
	getting bored, I do, but knowing that this is free I should pursue on this than buying 
	expensive commercial library software, really there's a lot of libraries who wants to 
	automate so that they can themselveds and thier users but expensive software erase this idea, many 
	libraries I think has just denied library automation because they can't afford to automate. So what
	would this result, ignorance. There's really a lot of info around us and technology on our hand but
	what are we doing with it, only play with it(counter strike, etc.). we should learn from it... A very
	long homily again.,.  ok Continue.) 
	
	The last thing I wish to say is you should generate your tag conversion and 
	copy-paste it in Import MARC module field which said 'Please Indicate ISIS to MARC Tags Conversion!'
	Then in this field do the conversion. I suggest you to do it in notepad first and then
	copy-paste it. If you have 50,00 records you would not probably type it again and again.
	Ex.1 "200=245, 100=260, 300=100, 620=650"  what this heck means. It means that  on ISIS
	you have tag 200, in which in MARC standard it is equivalent to 245(title), 2nd. You have
	300 tag on ISIS that looks like an author field, then you must indicate it in your
	tag conversion like this, 300=100, isn't it easy. If not send me an email of your suggestion.
	Be noted that you must have at least, a title(100), author(245) fields to index your new data,
	if not you're lost on the black hole. You MARC is stored but not searchable. Thus be 
	noted, you must put at least one 100, 245, 250 tags.
	
	This runs like a documentation. I think I would create some official manual of this
	perhaps in the next version.
	 
	If you have problems converting your ISIS in PhpMylibrary do email me.
	
	Ok that's for now. ISIS users enjoy!. Librarians enjoy!.		

2 May 2002

	- The post-nuke settings can be overrride. What I mean with settings is, thier
	theme settings. We all know that themes have thier own background colors ,etc.
	By editing the polerio/phpmylibrary/config/conf.php you will see a 
	$pmlconfig['PnThOver'] = '1';  parameter. If given a value of 1, post-nuke themes colors
	will be overriden. This means that you can make your own color combination. This 
	combination has three colors, bgcolor1, bgcolor2, bgcolor3. Each of them will act in 
	different manner. bgcolor1 will act as the top panel color, the bgolor2 color the
	content. bgcolor3 color the footer. etc.
	
	The MARC definition has been converted in multilanguage framework. You can now create a
	language of your own of your MARC definition. Ex. of MARC definition is the tag 100,
	tag 100 means Author. 245 means title, etc. Being implemented globally, you can now
	customized your MARC language on polerio/lang/eng/MARC.php by creating the same on 
	another folder like polerio/lang/fr/MARC.php for france language. Then modify your 
	language settings in polerio/config/conf.php with a line $config['lang'] = 'eng'; and 
	convert it to  $config['lang'] = 'fr';
	
	All definitions has been quite done but thier delimeters is underway.
	
1 May 2002

	- The Cataloging module has been added although at this point in time, no accessioning 
	has been done. The editing and adding of MARC is already programmed.
	
	- The Cataloging ADD MARC Help has been done with the help of Kinchan Cepillo.
	This functionality simply gives you a guide on how to encode new MARC. This gives the
	equivalent MARC tag number's name, definition and delimiters and some brief example.
