  3. Hello world! We are ManyPrint Solutions, a SaaS service for automated #layout generation. It is controlled in the browser or via REST API. Interfaces to third-party providers enable the integration of real-time data for hyper-personalisation. Layouts are created #template-free based on rules and exported for #print, #web or email. Print layouts with special colors, fold types or finishes are supported, ideal for #mailings, #catalogues or #books.

  4. [Meanwhile @athenaxobs ...] Launched in 1999, ESA's XMM-Newton Observatory continues to scan the #Universe for X-ray sources: galactic centers, black holes, explosive events, pulsars and more.

    On July 9, the international XMM-Newton SSC (Survey Science Centre) collaboration published a new version of the X-ray source #catalogues: more than a million sources listed! The synthesis of 24 years of observations ...

  5. [En attendant @athenaxobs ...] Lancé en 1999, l'Observatoire XMM-Newton de l'ESA continue de scanner l'#Univers, à la recherche de sources X : centres galactiques, trous noirs, événements explosifs, pulsars, etc.

    Ce 9 juillet, la collaboration internationale XMM-Newton SSC (Survey Science Centre) a publié une nouvelle version des #catalogues de sources X : plus d'un million de sources recensées ! La synthèse de 24 années d'observations ... 👍 👏

  6. Checking the National Records of Scotland web catalogue is reminding me again how much I wish it allowed wildcards or fuzzy name searches. Searching for someone called Fowler circa 1600 - even a courtier whose job was writing stuff (secretary for the queen) - requires a lot of variant name searches! #HistoricalResearch #ScottishHistory #NationalRecordsOfScotland #NRS #Archives #Catalogues #Catalogs #Search #Histodon #Histodons

  9. En revanche, par pitié: est-ce que les #catalogues de #bibliothèques pourraient permettre d'effectuer une recherche par dates? Quand j'explore un fonds ancien, je ne sais pas par avance ce que je cherche!

  10. A group of 1970s campus #librarians foresaw our world of distributed #knowledge and #research, and designed search tools for it

    > of all the online search experiments that took place during this period (...) SUPARS mimicked contemporary web search more closely than any other, prefiguring several primary features of web-search protocols we rely on more than 50 years later.

    We have also a much larger dataset on holdings based on data from HathiTrust, German union catalogues, and AUB library. I haven't found the time to turn it into an actual website / catalogue (my original was to move most data to Wikidata for others to reference and re-use). You can find this dataset at github.com/OpenArabicPE/author

    It would be great to be able to use Worldcat data but their API is famously inaccessible to not-so-wealthy institutions.
