Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

This book shows you how to harness the power of linked data and web-scale discovery systems to manage and link widely varied content across your library collection.
Libraries are increasingly using web-scale discovery systems to help clients find a wide assortment of library materials, including books, journal articles, special collections, archival collections, videos, music and open access collections. Depending on the library material catalogued, the discovery system might need to negotiate different metadata standards, such as AACR, RDA, RAD, FOAF, VRA Core, METS, MODS, RDF and more.
In Managing Metadata in Web-scale Discovery Systems, editor Louise Spiteri and a range of international experts show you how to:
maximize the effectiveness of web-scale discovery systems
provide a smooth and seamless discovery experience to your users
help users conduct searches that yield relevant results
manage the sheer volume of items to which you can provide access, so your users can actually find what they need
maintain shared records that reflect the needs, languages, and identities of culturally and ethnically varied communities
manage metadata both within, across, and outside, library discovery tools by converting your library metadata to linked open data that all systems can access
manage user generated metadata from external services such as Goodreads and LibraryThing
mine user generated metadata to better serve your users in areas such as collection development or readers' advisory.
