Abstract
McGill has just introduced a “new titles” sub-catalogue and index for its OPAC. The index is based on an “accession date” stored in the item record, and the sub-base contains the books (and book-like items) that have recently become available on library shelves across the McGill Libraries system. The presentation describes the new OPAC features and explains how we made it all possible with PL/SQL.
Audience: Public services and systems librarians; a high level of expertise required for the systems stuff, a low level for the overview.
Version: 14.2 (not very relevant)
Educational outcome: Illustrate innovative problem-solving in ALEPH.
