Designing the future -- Library Systems and Data Formats
Introduction
I began this wiki ages ago, when we were just beginning to think about a post-MARC library catalog. It is now 2020 and although much has changed, a lot has not. One of the things that we tend to ignore in the library field is our own development history. This wiki now has a feel of documentation. I will try to organize it for that purpose, and to add new sections that address new trends. I will also try to emphasize what has not changed, because the lack of change is what we need to pay the most attention to.
How to Participate PBwiki has changed its login procedures. To log in, you may need to request a password. If you can't figure out how to do this, you can contact me (kcoyle of kcoyle.net) and I'll try to help you figure it out.
Note: I have gotten some password requests but all they give me is a user ID, so I have no idea who is really requesting the password (could be a spammer). So send me mail and introduce yourself, and I'll set you up here.
Adding to and editing this wiki is encouraged for anyone with an interest in these matters.
