Requires PHP 5.1, PEAR::MDB2, any compatible DBMS

A fully-featured, standalone spatial search application for CONTENTdm® map collections.

Designed to be relatively easy to install and customize for non-programmer, non-GIS expert librarians. Written in object-oriented PHP, ISIS uses the PEAR::MDB2 module for database portability and separates program logic from presentation to allow for easy modification of the HTML/CSS user interface.

Trespassed Patron Database

GPL | Author: Alex Dolski | Source code (.tar.gz)

Requires PHP 4 and MySQL

A PHP/MySQL application that keeps track of patrons that have been trespassed from the libraries - storing basic vital information about them along with a photo and reason for their ban.

Access to the list of current and expired bans is tiered. The authorization mechanism authenticates against the libraries' Lotus Domino system and, additionally, against a smaller internal subset of authorized users. This enables staff to use their Domino usernames and passwords to log in, while further limiting access to authorized staff.
