Just a quick note...
The development version (e.g. "still changing") of the Millennium
integration module for Drupal 6 is now out.
http://drupal.org/project/millennium
This module imports bibliographic information from the Millennium
WebOpac (library catalog) and generates Drupal pages which include
real-time holdings information.
The module was already available for Drupal 5, but some told me they
were meaning to use or already using Drupal 6 in their institutions.
Enjoy! =)
Module Features
* auto-crawl or manual import of items with each cron run
* support for external book jacket image services
* imports Library of Congress book description and Table of Contents
along with item, available for searching
* choose between real-time holdings information or just a link to
the original item in your WebOpac
* maps MARC fields to taxonomy vocabularies for navigation and RSS
* Google Books links for items available online
We are currently using the Drupal 5 version of the module at our
Library, which is also using Apache Solr. For a demo search, try this link:
