Thanks for the Australian libraries

  1.  
    1. Hey, thanks for the Australian library adds today.  I was just adding SLNSW and SLVIC and noticed yours.  Wonder if we can find a list of local libraries or library systems to import?

      1. No problem :)  I've started with those already in Freebase from Wikipedia, but was going to move on to other SA ones soon.

        Not sure if there's one list for all of Australia.  I just found this for South Australian libraries; this only allows a map-based search over all Australian libraries ... 

        How's this for Victorian libraries? 

      2. Yeah I did find that Victorian search. 

         I think it would be best to enter library systems and
        build out branches from there; when I went to enter "Richmond Library" (my local one when I was in Melbourne) I found that there were lots of similarly-named ones in the US, and without any properties to distinguish my one from the others, it would just be an orphaned topic with little use.

        http://www.libraries.vic.gov.au/librarylocator/az.cgi?listServices=1 looks like a not-bad list of public library *systems* in Vic.

         You know about the list import tool right?  Please tell me you do.  It would make this way easier.

         

      3. Hey Luke, want to help me flesh out the SA libraries with more information?

        By the way, are you http://www.perl.com/pub/au/Schubert_Luke ?

      4. Sure.  Any libraries in particular?  Last time I checked there were still a few missing ...

        Yep, that's me.
