About: Finc

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

finc (find in catalog) is an open consortium comprising various university libraries that jointly operate and develop bibliographic search engines (cf. discovery systems) for their users. The consortium focuses on free and open source software as well as being independent of lesser transparent solution, such as commercial bibliographic indexes. Thus, apart from extending the open source software VuFind major efforts embrace negotiating with publishers to acquire metadata records (e.g. as MARC or JATS or any proprietary format) to already licensed content, as well as processing such records to adhere to the Solr index schema in place.

dbo:abstract
  • Unter der Bezeichnung finc (find in catalog) haben sich Bibliotheken zu einer Gemeinschaft zusammengeschlossen, die gemeinsam bibliographische Suchmaschinensysteme erstellt, weiterentwickelt und dauerhaft betreibt. Ursprung der Gemeinschaft war ein dreijähriges, EFRE-gefördertes Projekt in Sachsen, welches es zum Ziel hatte, bibliographische Discovery-Systeme für sächsische Hochschulbibliotheken zu erstellen. Dieses Projekt fand im Zeitraum 2011 bis 2014 statt und wurde auf Basis der Software VuFind realisiert. Nach dem Auslaufen der Förderphase bildeten ehemalige am Projekt beteiligte Einrichtungen eine Gemeinschaft zum weiteren Betrieb und der gemeinschaftlichen Finanzierung der entstandenen Infrastruktur. Seit der Gründung der Gemeinschaft sind neue Mitglieder auch aus anderen Bundesländern beigetreten, mittlerweile arbeiten 17 Einrichtungen aus dem gesamten Bundesgebiet zusammen. Technischer Betreiber der Infrastruktur ist die Universitätsbibliothek Leipzig. (de)

Initiated 2011 with public funds for Saxony, Germany, as a three-year project, its scope used to be restricted to Saxon university libraries. The consortium since finances their infrastructure and further development via own shared means of over a dozen institutions across Germany. Coordination and hosting is undertaken in and by University Library of Leipzig. (en)
