OT: Will be taking on the thought work for “new” groups. Part of the reason these new groups are being proposed is to have expert members from across functions.

FF: meet every other week; I didn’t create the official workplan, I inherited it!

• We do revisit the workplan - that was mostly things that were not working great across the campuses, so it was a lot of stuff the group was hoping to work out / solve together.

• We don’t have a lot of control over these features - we’re waiting on Ex Libris for much of the issues. Then we can harmonize.

• A lot of it is aspirational - we’re having to find workarounds for now, then once there is a way to harmonize we’ll know where we stand and can act on it faster.

• Harmonization is the goal, but it’s been hard because we don’t have control over Alma at this time.

eRes: The software in our module works as promised, so Ex Libris would want us to start from scratch within their paradigm, and as an institution with a long history that’s not feasible.

Disc: We have a short list of things we wanted to work on this year, and we’re taking a new approach of letting people self-select into small groups to work on.

Acq: We talked about our workplan for the first time in a long time, and it was energizing! I’m hoping we can focus on some deliverables this year.

RS: We also utilize subgroups and that really works for us, so if there’s a new project we’ll usually have a small group test it out and see if it’s worth all doing it collectively - we’ll move forward with the full group if it’s viable in the small group.

Discussion about how to advocate for new work

Team

New work will always come up - we have to have a process to evaluate the work we do so that we can do high value work. What does that look like?

• Why would this work fit or not fit in an OST? Why is it more than a project team?

  • Ongoing work, not with a final project ending.

• Representative vs expertise

• Cross-functionality

• Capacity / morale within the OSTs / campuses.
