z39.50 Servers for NZ Schools
Hello All, Does anyone have any suggestions of good z39.50 servers for use in New Zealand schools, particularly primary schools? Thanks, Braedon Vickers -- TechnologyWise Ltd, Tauranga, NZ braedon@tw.co.nz www.technologywise.co.nz ph: +64 (0)7 571 1060 fax: +64 (0)7 571 1061
Hi Braedon, We use Te Puna (National Library) and Library of Congress and have a good hit rate between them. isbn searches fail quite often though so rerun failed queries with author / title. Cheers Jo. Braedon Vickers wrote:

Hi Braedon, You might also want to contant 'Curriculum Corporation' in Oz http://www2.curriculum.edu.au/scis/home.html Last year, they were trialling Z39 access to their collection, which may now be publicly available. A bunch of NZ schools use their services, and they are nice folk Mason.
