Excellent New Library Service for the
Visually Impaired!
Excellent New Library Service for the
Visually Impaired!
10/31/2003 01:38 AMInfoEyes: an Online Information Community and
Virtual Reference Services for the Visually Impaired
"Under the leadership of the Illinois State Library Talking Book
and Braille Service, the Mid-Illinois Talking Book Center and the
Southern Illinois Talking Book Center are pleased to announce the
opening of InfoEyes(http://www.infoeyes.org) on
November 3, an online information community and virtual reference
service for the visually impaired.
Talking book readers, other visually impaired individuals, and
librarians are invited to use the trial service. Through the service,
library customers can get assistance using the Internet, finding
information on the Internet and in periodical databases and reader
advisory service. Librarians will be using OCLC Question Point
Enhanced software to provide services which include voice over IP,
co-browsing, and application sharing. The trial will run through July
30, 2004. It is hoped that more libraries in other states serving the
visually impaired will join Illinois in providing these services.
Customers will be asked to evaluate the service and resources to help
librarians in developing the service. Hours of service are posted on
the web page and it is hoped that as more libraries join the service
that hours can be extended. If customers want service outside of those
hours, they can schedule an appointment or a reference session.
As the project develops, more information will be posted on the
website. Tom Peters of TAP Information Services is the project
evaluator and will write an evaluation of the project which will be
made available when the project ends. If you have questions on the
service, please contact Lori Bell (lbell@alliancelibrarysys
tem.com) of the Mid-Illinois Talking Book Center or Diana
Brawley Sussman (dbrawley@shawls.lib.il.us<
/A>) of the Southern Illinois Talking Book Center." [The Handheld

Office 2003 Tool: Local Installation

Office 2003 Tool: Local Installation
Source Tool
05/28/2004 01:48 AMThe Local Installation Source Tool is a wizard to help manage your
Local Installation Source (LIS) on computers running Microsoft Office
2003. The LIS Tool allows you to enable or disable LIS, and to move
the MsoCache folder to a new volume. This download is intended for use
by customers and network administrators with LIS issues who contact
Microsoft Product Support Services.
Local Installation Source is a Setup feature. When a user installs
Microsoft Office 2003 from a CD or a compressed CD image on the
network, Setup copies any required installation files to a hidden
folder on the local computer. Microsoft Windows Installer uses this
local installation source to install Office, and the local source
remains available for repairing, reinstalling or updating Office later
on. Users can install features on demand or run Setup in maintenance
mode to add new features without their original media.
Innovative Gets Busy!
Innovative Gets Busy!
06/05/2005 11:24 PMI’m totally snowed under writing grants and dealing with some
medical stuff going on at home, but I just had to post about this.
Someone forwarded to me Innovative’s June
2005 newsletter (PDF). See if you can spot why from the following
list of just a few things they will be introducing in upcoming
releases:
- A program registration module that uses the
patron database to let your users register for
events.
- Spell-check for searches in the catalog
(let’s add auto suggest, too, eh?).
- “Patron
materials rating,” which is an ugly way of saying user ratings
and you can see how others are rating titles. You can also add a
reading history module that lets users track what they’ve
already read, all of which integrates with the ratings
piece.
- WebBridge “smart” linking, which highlights
resources you’ve designated for specific searches when the user
runs that search.
- The ability to link to ebook and audio ebook
vendors from the 856 field in AirPAC.
- Sympsoia, a digital
repository module.
- RSS.
Yep, you read that right
– RSS! So the good news is that they are currently beta testing
RSS feeds with Yale University, and Innovative seems to understand what
they need to offer in terms of feeds.
“Now, Innovative’s RSS
(Really Simple Syndication) development will make possible new
time-critical features for both anonymous and logged-in users of the
online catalog. RSS is an XML format that allows organizations and
individuals to feed news data directly into news readers or webpages
as it is updated. The XML feed can be converted to HTML for use in a
wide variety of contexts.
It is already possible to add these
HTML portions with feed data into any library-customizable page in the
Web OPAC. With Release 2006LE, available late this year, Innovative
customers will have the ability to convert feeds to HTML without using
third-party solutions. Also, the library will be able to generate its
own feeds of new titles acquired by the
library….
Innovative will use RSS to support one-to-many
communication, but in Release 2006 there will also be one-to-one
support. Patrons will be able to get RSS messages as part of their My
Millennium suite of personalization features. Timely messages such as
‘Materials due tomorrow’ or ‘New item on hold shelf
for you’ will let patrons know about their interactions with the
library more quickly than ever before.”
I am
thrilled to hear about all of this, but you also just read the bad
news – 2006. That means my SWAN libraries really will
lose a minimum of 924 hours of staff
time this year after all. Still, they’re heading in the
right direction and doing lots of cool stuff, so I tip my hat to III
and say job well done!

I went looking for a pointer for Channel Z and noted two
things.
Google knows I'm in the Netherlands. This
is irritating. I may be in the Netherlands, but I don't speak Dutch.
How do I tell it to stop being so smart and just give me
Google-As-Usual for a guy from the US who likes the Mets.
Second, when I searched for Channel Z the top hit was a post
from a guy at O'Reilly complaining that I stole the idea from him.
What utter nonsense. The idea of hierarchic directories certainly
predates blogging tools. Manila has had a hierarchic directory browser
since 2000. And everything in Channel Z
is edited in an outliner, and as far as I know no other blogging tool
has one, and if it does, was it really the first outliner? I did my
first outliner in 1978. Doug Engelbart did one before. I think that's
about it.

The stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper
between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. It
can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd daemons
like POP2, POP3, and IMAP servers without any changes in the programs'
code. It will negotiate an SSL connection using the OpenSSL or SSLeay
libraries. It calls the underlying crypto libraries, so stunnel
supports whatever cryptographic algorithms you compiled into your
crypto package.
Changes:
Some bugfixes and code cleanup were done.
Upgrading is recommended.

07/02/2004 01:11 PMAs we previously
noted, Coke has launched a contest revolving around a small number
of cans outfitted with cell phones and GPS receivers. Winners who
discover the cans call a prize center to win big prizes. According to
the AP though, military bases are paranoid that soldiers might bring
the cans into classified meetings where they could inadvertently be
used as an eavesdropping device. For example, Sue Murphy, a
spokeswoman for Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, told the AP that her
facility has "taken measures to make sure everyone's aware of this
contest and to make sure devices are cleared before they're taken in."
The special cans shouldn't be too hard to spot though--they have a big
panel of buttons on the side.
Paul Saffo, research director at The Institute for the
Future, a technology research firm, compared the concern about the
Coke cans to when the Central Intelligence Agency banned Furbies, the
stuffed toys that could repeat phrases.
"There's things generals should stay up late at night worrying about,"
he said. "A talking Coke can isn't one of them."
