We're working on that. It's purposeful for now, since we don't have images
in the catalog. Our teacher suggested we put something visual in, and we're
scrambling. Today is our tech rehearsal, and next Wednesday is the
showcase. Code spring!

It's weird how the QZAP logo comes up as the thumbnail/placeholder image.

showing which institutions have the zine in their collections would be
great too.

I am eager to see some subjects and points of access (will these be
poached from the source records?)  Did I miss out on some of the
vocab/metadata discussion?

Hi All,

Nice work so far.  From my initial browse I noticed two things right off
the bat:

  1. I looked at the record for Borderlands: It's A Family Affair #2.  It
    looks like the ingest brought all the creators into a single Entity field
    instead of creating records for each individual.  Thus " Nia King, juli
    jeong martin, Charlotte Albrecht, Jackie Wang, Jillian Ford, Claudia Leung,
    Nadia Abou-Karr, Stevie Peace, Patti Duncan
    http://test.zinecat.org/index.php/Browse/objects/key/ecc7411b22d8481e480b6140ebe83778/facet/entity_facet/id/223/view/images"
    looks like an individual persyn.

  2. Looking at the record for Because the Boss Belongs to Us the "source"
    URL is malformed somehow, and is not displaying correctly, which then leads
    to a broken link.  For that record it looks like it's trying to link to a
    CLIO record.  You could also add a link to the QZAP record so that both
    show up, denoting that the zine exists in both collections (non-evil
    WorldCat style.)

just my initial thoughts.

Dear Advisors,

We continue to make progress, informed by your feedback, mostly on a
development site: http://test.zinecat.org. We've added zine library
logos to our home page (looks bad in Chrome), uploaded records from each of
those three libraries, brought in date and publication data, and a link
back to the source catalog, so you can find out more about the zine(s)
you're interested in.

Will you have a look at our dev site and share your reactions, advice,
and questions?

The records still don't look very pretty, but functional seems like a
huge step. :)

We'll update the main site on Saturday in anticipation of our public
presentation
https://gcdi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/event/the-digital-gc-2016-17-year-end-showcase/
on Wednesday, May 17 at 4:15 at the CUNY Graduate Center, to which you are
invited. Dress: casual. Bring: vegan pastries and venture capitalists
nostalgic for their punk youth.

With undying affection,
Jenna and the rest of the ZineCat team
