Overview Background Why a mashup project? Goals Guidelines Experiences 1 Experiences 2 Further work

Background Pode; translates into English as graft Contest held at workshop in Bergen 2007. ABM funded the project, Oslo Public Library administrates it.

Why a mashup-project? Better user experience for our end-users Investigate data access, both technical & practical Use and reuse of cataloguedata Better dissemination of our collections.

Goals Pode shall Facilitate the development of mashup applications Develop two mashup applications. Make use of openly available content Develop a site that illustrates the use of these applications. Distribute the code freely.

Guidelines Independent and overall. All mashups to be developed using both SRU and z39.50. Comment all source code. Source code is public under a GPL licence. Uniform documentation of the APIs used.

Experiences 1 Myth buster: access to our data not as difficult as first feared Collaborated with IT-students Tested the protocols z39.50, SRU & RSS Mashup: framework ”the trip planner” Student’s findings: RSS useless, z39.50 detailed, SRU fastest.

Experiences 2 In order to test SRU protocol; installed Koha. Not all Norwegian libraries make use of z39.50 International systems in Norway do not support the Norwegian z39.50 profile.

The mashups The trip planner Catalogue GeoNames Google Maps Weather forecast Yr.no Encyclopedia Norvegica (Store norske leksikon) Open library Bokkilden.no Music mashup Catalogue LastFM

Further work FRBR: until February 2010. Use the Bibsys FRBRiser prototype. Test the functionality provided by Koha. Test FRBRised userinterface VuFind Bibsys Ask 2 Hopefully after February Collaboration with Norwegian libraries in order to implement the mashups in other ILSs. Looking at available semantic web in the library sector.
