RE: New Book list in academic environment

["Gowing, Cheryl A." <cgowing@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We post monthly list of new acquisitions organized by academic
discipline, as well as unique collection.  We also post a weekly list of
all new acquisitions, with listings by author, title, or call number.

One of our web librarians, Lyn McCorkle, used the perl script posted by
Yuan Yao of Georgetown Law as a starting point for her script.  We
output lists of records from Create Lists, then I believe she uses the
call no. information to sort the records into disciplines.   The new
acquisitions by discipline displays call no, title [complete 245], and
imprint, with a link to the full record based on a oclc number search.

You can see our New Acquisitions lists at:
http://www.library.miami.edu/library/acquisitions.html

This is a common topic on the listserv. You might try a search of the
archives on 'new acquisitions', 'new book list', or 'perl script'.    

Yuan's perl script is still available at:

Subject: New Book list in academic environment


Is anyone using "Create Lists" to create a new book list for each
discipline each semester?
