Migration Checklist

From the Documentation Interest Group...a Migration Checklist that links back to resources within the documentation.  Probably needs some fleshing out but it's a good start!

Horizon and Evergreen: Did you know?

Posted on August 13th, 2010 by Lori Bowen Ayre and tagged , , , , , .

Did you know that Evergreen's "shelving locations" are synonymous with Horizon's "collection codes?"  

Did you know that Evergreen's "circulation identifiers" are synonymous with Horizon's "itypes?"

I learned this from the attached document, contributed by Bibliomation.  It documents their system-wide loan policy recommendations.  Check it out, they got public, academic and school libraries to agree on a consistent loan periods.  Awesome!

 

 

Evergreen E/R Diagrams

Posted on August 4th, 2010 by junerayner and tagged , , , , .

We created Entity/Relationship (E/R) diagrams of the Evergreen database from the EG Version 1.6 schema.    Reviewing and understanding the data model was very helpful in conjunction with our functional evaluation.   It also helped us prepare for migration training and in planning our data migration.    We plan to update this periodically with corrections and for new versions of Evergreen.
