  • Advices for a public library

    Hi!

    I want to create a public library of mainly PDF documents. Right now I have about 1000 documents. They are classified in different folders like:

    1) hydroponics
    2) aquaponics
    3) aquaculture

    and so on. As the Library is just starting I would like to avoid , for now, to use categories in Zoom. I am changing them too often.

    Question:

    What will be the easiest way to index a monster Public Library if you add just a couple of documents at a time 3 to 5 times a week?

    I was thinking to append a new folder with the date each time I add documents like:

    MAIN CAT: hydroponics (folder's name)/2010-02-18 (folder's name inside hydroponics folder)

    This way I could tell Zoom to index (online indexing) just "hydroponics/2010-02-18" .

    Is this would be the best strategy for incremental indexing in the case of a Public Library or would you have something different in mind?

    I just want to avoid right from the start taking the wrong path!

    Thanks for any suggestions.

    1000 documents with another 200 a year is far from a "monster" library.

    1,000,000 or 50,000,000 documents might qualify as monster

    With such a small set, of static documents, I would just use offline mode and re-index them all once a week.
