Dear Vaisnavas,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Guru-parampara ki jaya!


We would like to set up online search engine of the Bhaktivedanta
College Library (5,000 titles). At the moment BC is using Access
dBase. Engine, which should be a part the present web
(www.bhaktivedantacollege.com) should have the next facilities:

- search by title and author.
- browse by type (Books | Journals | Conference Proceedings |
Magazines | Reports | Other Materials)
- bookings of the books (basket)
- Admin site - bookings / catalog update

1) Is there any open source search engine available?
2) Anyone interested in the project? Certain budget available.

Examples:
http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/lists.html
http://training.esri.com/campus/library/index.cfm
http://www.lib.wayne.edu/sites/elephants/bibliography.php


Thank you for your kind help!

Your servant,
Dinadayal dasa

Dandavat pranams. Srila Prabhupada kijaya.

I am working with the BBT to build a digital repository based on
Dspace. We would be interested in working with you on digital
content.

For your library, I recommend talking to Hari Sauri prabhu. they are
implementing some software solution at the BRI in Kolkata which was
recommended by Stella Herzig, a professional in the field of library
science. According to e-mails that I have the software is called
NextGenLib, but I couldn't find it online. The closest I found was
NewGenLib (http://www.verussolutions.biz/web/node/29).

In any case we should collaborate on metadata definitions.

Your servant,
Pancharatna Das
