aleph X harvester

this simple script is working best together with vufind, with a view customizations it can work independently.

it uses the find and present syntax of aleph x server documented here:
http://www.exlibrisgroup.org/display/AlephCC/Query+MetaLib+X-server+from+ALEPH+OPAC

if you have other possibilities like oai-pmh, it is preferrable to use this.
aleph X server has some limitations like it cannot present more than 1000 records at once, thats why i harvest records per year and if the limit of 1000 records is esceeded, i refine the search parameters like searching from A-Z.

see wiki for more details.
