Presenter: John Wohlers, Waubonsee Community College
The presenter uses the new web services API in combination with Google Maps to create an interactive library floor map that displays the locations of items directly in the OPAC
Technology Used:
*SirsiDynix Web Services API
*SirsiDynix E-Library
*PHP
*MySQL
*Google Maps API V3
*Google Earth
*QR Codes
*Adobe Photoshop / Fireworks
I think this is a very nice feature for patrons. Currently, a new patron would have no clue where in the library an item is located based on the call number that we provide. With this program, it would point to the shelf and patrons can just walk there to get it. As a programmer, I would love to implement this at RPL someday.
