Working with or around your ILS?: Solutions from the real world. Sponsored by SIG LAN
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Integrated Library System (ILS) is the backbone of the library. Traditional systems supplied by a handful of vendors have done the job more or less. However, with the advent of the WWW and the digital library, librarians have become more demanding about the features of these systems. Integrated Library Systems need to be more sophisticated and more adaptable to the needs of libraries. ILS vendors are not always ready or able to keep up with the demand for added functionality and libraries are often left to develop intermediary solutions or look to thirdparty software applications to achieve the functionality they need. This session will present the work of four projects undertaken to add functionality to ILSs.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
