LibAgent news http://www.libagent.org/news.html LibAgent news en-us ETZ transition to ALEPH-500 http://www.libagent.org/news.html The Yeshivat Har Etzion library moved to an ALEPH-500 server. We continue to provide service to this library; users do not need to do anything, and their books will be renewed as before. July 15, 2007. Hebrew scraping http://www.libagent.org/news.html There is a bug in ALEPH-500 that will randomly make the English version of the renewal pages disappear. This particularly hit the Bar-Ilan servers recently. We are now able to also work against the Hebrew version in such cases. This will improve service reliability for the affected libraries. April 20, 2007. CTE changes http://www.libagent.org/news.html we have a new script to handle the renewals through the web interface, instead of the old TELNET interface (used in ALEPH-300 installations). This should avoid the ALEPH bugs where a renewal is refused from one interface but is allowed on another (which the user happens to prefer to access). Renewals of CTE are now handled through this script. Expect some problems with Hebrew book name transliterations - we'll get on top of these soon. April 2, 2007. New library http://www.libagent.org/news.html Added support for the Judea and Samaria college library. April 2, 2007. CTE Problems http://www.libagent.org/news.html CTE (Holon) problems are resolved. We are back to normal service. January 7, 2007. CTE Problems http://www.libagent.org/news.html We can't contact the CTE (Center for the Technological Education Holon) library, and weren't able to do so in the last few days. Announcements were sent to affected users. We will resume renewals for these libraries as soon as they are again connected to the inter-library loan system. We know that they have changed their domain from HAIT.ac.il to HIT.ac.il recently. We don't yet know if this problem is related to the change. January 6, 2007. Move to a new server http://www.libagent.org/news.html We moved to a new hosting provider. Most of the functionality has already been migrated successfully. November 28, 2006.
