Enough with the freakin’ LC Call Number normalization!

OK. I’m done with it, and this time I mean it.

I’ve updated and improved the lc normalization code, documented the algorithm, and put it all into Google Code. In the next couple weeks, I’ll be turning it into a Solr text filter so we can do some decent sorting on call-number search results.

    Thanks for sticking it up on the web. I suspect Blacklight will want that at some point.

    I wrote a bunch of LC parsing (and dewey, too!) to get to shelving keys. It’s in the CallNumUtils of the solrmarc project.
