This program surveys the use of 9XX tags in MARC bibliographic records across an entire Voyager database.
It looks for the use of tags from 900 to 999. When the survey is complete, a report is written to the log
file of 9XX tags that are not in use. The log file is written to the current directory unless a directory is specified with the file name.
The following steps outline two different ways to add QR codes to the Tomcat catalog. One will display a large QR code in the action box linking users to the record's webpage on their smartphone or mobile device. The other will display Title, Call Number and Location of an item once the QR code is scanned.

The following describes steps for adding a banner (including a hyperlinked map) to Voyager, which will carry across all pages. The initial set of instructions came from Todd King of Eastern Kentucky University. Additional tweaking provided by Jim Robinson of Tarrant County College. I'm literally just the messenger here. I am currently on Voyager 7.2.2.
I have had several people write me and ask how I moved the permanent / persistent link from the bottom of the record display to the top. Here's how I did it.
This was a request from Voyager-L to display the language of items in the catalogue/OPAC. There was some code used for the Primo add-ons from 7.2.3, and with a bit of tweaking, this has been made to work with the normal TomCat installation. Uses the language code encoded in the MaRC 008 header(? - hey, I am not a cataloguer), field and matches this with entries in a custom XML document to show the translated value of the code in the normal OPAc display.

If you want to add a label-like prefix to lines 4 or 5, this Code Contribution shows how this can be done. Note that the line must be consistently used to display one type of data (e.g. call number) for the labels to be effective.

I liked the look of the Primo display for Library items, where more details were provided when you click on tabs. I thought I would see if I could make our catalogue provide similar functionality, and this also provides an alternative to creating a "brief display".
If you're using jQuery, (or something else), to pull data from the Bib record display through to other sources, it's a lot easier if you can easily identify the bits you want. This provides a way to make WebVoyage TomCat give the data you want without having to use the Voyager WebServices APIs. Currently, the Bib record data is a list of data elements which are hard to identify - this XSL code lets you add descriptive identifiers to each piece of bibliographic data, so you can use jQuery to load them into other pages, etc.

Libraries that utilize Libraryh3lp as their chat solution can integrate either an embedded chat box or a pop up pretty easily into most applications. In an original attempt to do so in Voyager's header or footer, however, I found there wasn't a way to modify it to open in a separate window without the use of php - which we don't have. The following describes where and how to install a libraryh3lp popup in both the results list and the record display.
