After the last Vufind Developers call I said I would put together a list of useful icons for library applications. The immediate need for this is to supply generic images to fill the cover-image slot in results where no cover image has been found (in particular in the Summon interface), but it would be useful to build up a full set of library application icons which could be used by library software in any context, not just Vufind. Not having any graphical talents I'm just trying to put a list together, and will then see if I can find any graphic designers who can help us out with producing icons at multiple resolutions. I've put my initial list at http://vufind.org/wiki/icon_set (linked from http://vufind.org/wiki/new_feature_specifications). If anyone has any ideas or requests for more please add them - and if you see one you think is a bad idea, please add a comment to say why. Thanks, Graham |

Heyo, As per the discussion in the last developer's call of last year, I think it's worth looking at what icon sets are already available, and building on them with common artwork to complete the list Graham has suggested. If we get a good starting point in terms of style and some base icons, then ask someone's media department to supplement with additional icons to complete the collection. There are sets like this: http://openiconlibrary.sourceforge.net/ available under open source license. Careful assessment of the license is always advised of course, but it looks good. Within that Library (although I found it hard to navigate at first) you'll find nice looking icon libraries like those available for the KDE environment. Some of their MIME type icons would be an obvious place to start. Take this one for example: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Crystal_Clear A lot of very popular KDE libraries can be found here: http://kde-look.org/index.php?xsortmode=down&xcontentmode=27 Ta, Greg On 10 January 2011 21:09, Seaman, Graham <Gra...@rh...> wrote: > After the last Vufind Developers call I said I would put together a list > of useful icons for library applications.

Here is a list of icon sets I looked at a while back. > http://www.diigo.com/user/wardin/icons Some are clearly released under an open source license but others don't seem to be or don't state one.

Apologies if this has been asked before (I've searched and found related items, but can't seem to find a direct answer ...) We've released the bulk of our catalog database to Google for crawling. You can see an example here: http://openagricola.nal.usda.gov/Record/CAIN709030152 (BTW: This is a basic Vufind instance, extremely pared down, for the time being. We hope to release a full-blown VuFind system later this year.) So, the question: If you look at the link above, you'll see the title of the page is "Holdings: Records and descriptions of Tipulidae from South America (Diptera). III." We'd like to remove (or change) the title categorization "Holdings." Is this (easily) possible? Many thanks! Kelly Kelly A.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I have added links in the wiki so we don't lose track of them: http://vufind.org/wiki/icon_set#existing_icon_sets Feel free to add more or comment on the existing links there. - Demian > -----Original Message----- > From: Anoop Atre [mailto:ano...@mn...] > Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2011 7:01 PM > To: vuf...@li... > Subject: Re: [VuFind-General] [VuFind-Tech] Library application icons > > Here is a list of icon sets I looked at a while back. > > http://www.diigo.com/user/wardin/icons > > Some are clearly released under an open source license but others don't > seem to be or don't state one. > > Cheers > -- > "Mit der Dummheit kämpfen Götter selbst vergebens" > ~ Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller > > On 01/11/2011 05:35 PM, Greg Pendlebury wrote: > > Heyo, > > > > As per the discussion in the last developer's call of last year, I > think > > it's worth looking at what icon sets are already available, and > building on > > them with common artwork to complete the list Graham has suggested. > If we > > get a good starting point in terms of style and some base icons, then > ask > > someone's media department to supplement with additional icons to > complete > > the collection. > > > > There are sets like this: > > http://openiconlibrary.sourceforge.net/ > > > > available under open source license.

Not too hard -- in web/services/Record/Holdings.php, there is a call to $interface->setPageTitle that is responsible for this. You have two options: 1.) Change the contents of the setPageTitle call 2.) Edit the web/lang/en.ini file to remap the word "Holdings" to something else through VuFind's translation mechanism (this will change the on-screen tab as well as the page title... so keep that in mind if you try this approach). - Demian > -----Original Message----- > From: Harmon, Kelly [mailto:Kelly.Harmon@ARS.USDA.GOV] > Sent: Tuesday, February 01, 2011 12:03 PM > To: vuf...@li... > Subject: [VuFind-General] Change or Remove "Holdings" in the $pageTitle > variable? > > Apologies if this has been asked before (I've searched and found > related > items, but can't seem to find a direct answer ...) > > > > We've released the bulk of our catalog database to Google for crawling. > You can see an example here: > > http://openagricola.nal.usda.gov/Record/CAIN709030152 > > > (BTW: This is a basic Vufind instance, extremely pared down, for the > time being.
