We're a small college library, but we also have subscriptions to a few academic journals. Is it possible to set things up so that a search on koha would potentially include results from those journals? Would I have to inquire with the journal about getting periodic Marc record updates or a z39.50 connection, or is there something else I can do?
I'm thinking mainly of Academic Search Premier, but we have some others as well. http://www.ebscohost.com/academic/academic-search-premier
if you want to search only jornal titles, the best option is to ask of marc records from Ebsco and insert them into Koha. If you want to search articlese titles and into articles full text the one option is to use a Z39.50 search connection. To integrate Koha and one or more Z39.50 search connection you can install PazPar2 (a metasearcher) during Koha install and setup it You can use also a discovery tool like Vufind, those tools prefer the web API, they dislike z39.50 To integrate Vufind and Ebsco see: http://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-636 http://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-423 There are two different API At least you can write a specific tool. Here http://catalogo.pusc.it/ you can see a integration done javascript (Koha and an other open web site).
