Laurentian goes ever greener

Friday, October 12. 2007

This is slightly in advance of our official press release, which is currently in translation, but I will be giving / have given a lightning talk at Access 2007 on this subject and have decided to make the following materials available:

Report: Assessing Evergreen for an academic bilingual library
Evergreen Business Readiness Rating: (OpenOffice) (Excel) - see OpenBRR for more information about the Open Business Readiness Rating templates)
Presentation: Lightning talk: Going Ever Greener at Laurentian University

Thunder talk, Dan, thunder talk! Looking forward to it, and to the Evergreen BoF session this afternoon.

Congratulations on commiting to the migration at Laurentian, and good luck on it. I hope I can help at some point.

Dan, thanks for a good report on 'assessing evergreen for an academic bilingual library'. I am in the process of evaluating Evergreen for a public library in China. Given your understanding of Evergreen's internalization code, I am wondering if you see any potential issues with using double-byte characters in Postgre, web and staff client interface? I would be also very interested in your advice on how I should proceed with testing DBCS on Evergreen?
