This facility is really popular with, (mainly), our first-year students, who are new to APA, and referencing in general.

It uses an OCLC webservice, (requires registration), to retrieve a formatted citation for a book, or journal. The citation can be in either APA, Chicago, Harvard, MLA or Turabian formats. The advantage of this script is that, if you don't have an OCLC number for the book or journal, (a required parameter of the webservice), you can use an ISBN or ISSN instead. If an ISSN or ISBN is provided, then the xISSN or xISBN API (also provided by OCLC) is used, so there will be a slight delay, but the citation is cached for later use.

A snapshot of our mobile skin for TomCat WebVoyage 7.0.4, provided as a development aid for those intending to create their own mobile skin. I felt it was important not to treat mobile users as 2nd class citizens, so this skin allows a fairly complete functionality, including access to MyAccount, etc. to let our clients renew their own items! Course Reserves has been removed however, as this is not used extensively at our institution. I think a good option would be to enable the browse function for this part of WebVoyage, as drop-down lists may become unwieldy in a mobile skin.

Are your staff and patrons complaining about (Tomcat) WebVoyage being less than helpful in displaying availability? If there are 21 items for a holding and 12 are out it just displays 12 status lines, leaving you to count them up and subtract that from the total. Wouldn't it be much more helpful to state that there are still 9 items available? Fear not - this can be easily achieved within the Tomcat XSL!

The out of the box the tomcat version of WebVoyage includes an SFX button in the More About section of the Action Box. If you do not have SFX, you may want to remove this option.

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.

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.
