(Always) Recruiting New Query Developers

The Reporting SIG is always on the look-out for new query developers. Please let us know if you are interested in doing query development or if there are others at your institution who might be a good fit.

Demo of EBSCO's FOLIO Client python tool in Jupyter notebooks

Jeremy Nelson (Stanford)

Jeremy works in the Library Systems group at Stanford, is working on migrating from legacy systems to FOLIO. Plan to go live in August.
This tool has helped with the migration process
https://github.com/jermnelson/folio-notebooks
- GitHub repository with example Jupyter notebooks, both FOLIO Client and Metadb
May have some differences if you're using Windows; the process should work okay for Mac or Linux
Can start by cloning the repository to get your own copy of the files
You will want to create your own .env file that contains your connection details
virtual environment allows you to create a custom environment for this work, doesn't affect your installations elsewhere
the project will install JupyterLab so you can run Jupyter notebooks on your machine
