Z39.50 server for children's books
Does anybody know of a Z39.50 server that would have Scholastic books, and lesser known Christian books? I've seen the directory at http://irspy.indexdata.com but this does not help. Also, what server would have DVDs in them? We are not finding any of our DVDs in any server. We are currently using British Library, Columbia University, Metro-Boston Library Network, Smithsonian Institution Libraries, Library of Congress.

Paul, I don't know about Christian books, but I have pretty good luck with the Madison (WI) Metropolitan Schools <http://irspy.indexdata.com/full.html?id=Z39.50%3A199.197.115.61%3A210%2FMain> for Scholastic paperbacks and other school trade editions. --Katelyn.

Paul, take a look at this z39.50 target list on the Koha wiki. I know my consortia (NEKLS) and the SEKLS consortia may have the kinds of records you're looking for. I believe the Koha manual may have more Z39.50 targets in it as well. Look for public library targets -- those would have the DVD and Christian fiction records for sure. http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Open_Z39.50_Sources On Friday, October 24, 2014, CTS-Programmer 3 (Paul Dokken) < cts-prog3@sil.org.pg> wrote:

Heather, I will try NEKLS and SEKLS. I am assuming I just leave the Encoding to default to utf8 and set the Record type to Bibliographic.

Are the Scholastic books New Zealand published? If so try Christchurch City Libraries or Auckland City Libraries. They both have very good catalogues.
