Hi all, We periodically create bibliographies to support faculty projects and are at the point where we either want to roll our own re-usable software or adopt something from the wild. We need something that can understand library metadata on the way in and on the way out. We also need something that can be available as a data store to different webapps, e.g. a subject guide, a faculty publications webapp, etc. In other words, we need the datastore to be queryable from a script. I'm looking at Zotero, which seems to be hot on the harvesting end, but seems to be conceived of as a tool for a single researcher at their browser. I would need to flash Zotero's SQLite instance to a db table on my webserver so the data would be available to scripts. Ideally, my harvesting team could interact with the web application directly so there would be no harvesting/export/import latency. Any ideas if this is something we've already tackled in libraryland? Thanks, Michael Lindsey Law Library, UC Berkeley
