Former UVM staffer Hillary Archer and current Gund director Taylor Ricketts
I received this note from Hillary Archer, Project Manager Media Communications, Gund Institute for Ecological Economics. They are revising their site to better use the UVM template
http://www.uvm.edu/giee/development/
And they want their Publications Page , currently at
http://www.uvm.edu/giee/?Page=publications.html&default_menu.html
to be database driven, searchable, looking something like this:
http://www.uvm.edu/~waw/archives/geii/?Page=publications.html
I met with her and discussed her options:
o Request the PHP code from UMN http://environment.umn.edu/forms/project_search_form.php , find someone who can modify it for Gund use. Note that data fields are different
o Find someone to build it all from scratch
o Use Dspace as a ‘back end’
Hillary liked the Dspace option. To that end, I used dSpace API to incorporate dSpace display and search requests through php and UVM template. I also wrote a parser to interpret and unload EndNote XML exports.
