Sarah brought up these settings last week, and Gem investigated and doesn’t see any reason not to do this. She doesn’t see any privacy issues.

Sarah says this looks great!

Gem doesn’t see any risk, but is triple-checking with ExL.

Approved

Caitlin Nelson to take this via email to PPC as e-approval item.

"other UC" user stub records and billing

Greg

FYI item: Greg tracks all the jobs, and sees occasional failed notifications and failed letters sent. The reason why is because the patron records don’t have contact info (email addresses). The majority of these are network user records: a user from another campus requests a book and a stub record is created. Network record is findable, but is missing email address (or sometimes any other contact info).

In this case, it’s a pickup notice that’s missing.

Ramifications for billing notifications! Campus IT requires a physical mailing address for billing.

Greg believes the source record for the patron data (i.e. originating campus) is lacking the info.

UCM has only campus address; UCB requires email.

Seems like there needs to be some harmonization for what is required to borrow.

UCSD shared the table of what was approved: everyone agreed to the table as-is. But if the record in that campus’s Alma doesn’t have that data it won’t be in the stub record. So if there’s a need to contact someone at user’s home campus, can we do so?

Gilian: They should have a list of contacts for account information.

Tom: There’s also a spreadsheet for contacts on each SILS team at each campus.

Caitlin: Can we toss this over to FFFG? Describe the problem and ask them to solve it.

Carlo: There’s also some educational component to this: we’ve never required an email before and some campuses will have to do that if we decide that.

Greg Ferguson will write up the problem statement and request FFFG to come up with a solution.

Carlo Medina (Unlicensed) will check in with Liz R (chair of FFFG)

ACAG meeting update

Caitlin

Timeline review / PM update

• SILS Implementation Timeline

• Schedule (chronological order of tasks on Basecamp)

• Project Meetings (on basecamp and confluence)

Support during Implementation:

• Document Alma/Primo slowness in Salesforce, see instructions

• Alma/Primo known issues page on Confluence

• For escalations:

  • Essential to include case numbers - make sure that ICs provide those to PMs when asking for escalations. PMs need to ensure IC has pinged the consultant asking for a status update before escalating.

  • Escalations can go into 2 categories: it’s urgent, or there’s a lack of communication.

• SalesForce case OR Basecamp post? Please share this with your local implementation teams:

  • If it’s a general question, post on BC

  • If it’s problem, open a SF case

    • Also no need to double dip - if you have a SF case first, that’s all ExL needs (no need to additionally post on BC)
