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.

In February of 2010, Syndetics released a "Plus" version of their content enrichment product. The change resolves the previous issue with pop up windows being blocked. Important note: Voyager v.7.0.1 has a known bug in it where Syndetics book jackets (any version) will not display in Internet Explorer. As of July 2010, this page has been modified to provide instructions for Voyager v7.2.2. It has also recently been discovered there are display issues in IE v.7. Versions 8 and 9 seem okay.
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.
The ELink Checker is designed to simplify the URL-checking process in Voyager. Previously, we tried XENU. However, it is still a lot of preparation work to do before using XENU. Furthermore, the XENU program can not check ProQuest URLs.
Notice:Vendors do not necessarily support standard HTTP protocol. This Elink Checker might not be able to find out all possible broken links.

eBook records typically display confusing info to the patron at the results and display level. For example they will say zero holdings and/or not available as well as have a call number. It's also not immediately evident that this is an electronic resource. This code will do two things: from the results list it will remove the call # and insert a message indicating it is an online resource (or whatever message you choose) and at the display level will change the status to: available online and also remove the erroneous call number. Alex Kustanovich has a version for 7.0 posted on voyagerwiki.com titled Call Numbers and eBooks . Some additional tweaking was required for 7.2x Special thanks to Jim Robinson for his expertise and infinite patience.
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.
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.
