Add a del.icio.us link to Aleph OPAC

Bill Drew at Baby Boomer Librarian posts:
I have added javascript code to our ALEPH version 16 web OPAC to create a permanent link and a link to create a del.icio.us link. It works in the search results, full record display, and the holdings display. ALEPH allows the creation of permanent links. That was the basis for the javascript. It was modified by Nathan Fixler at the SUNY Office of Library and Information Services. I can read and sometimes even modifiy javascripts but this particlular code was beyond my skill level.

The catalog is at http://seneca.sunyconnect.suny.edu:4600/FM if you want to try it.

Here is one example of a tag created at del.icio.us:

Let me know what you think about this.
