Reminder to make sure your Zoom meetings all have passcodes (passwords) before July 19.

For meetings that do not have either a Passcode or Waiting Room enabled by July 19th, Zoom will enable a Waiting Room for you. https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360045009111 

Waiting rooms are fine at the beginning of meetings but if someone’s internet crashes and they try to rejoin a meeting or if someone is late, it means the chair has to watch their waiting room constantly. So, best to make sure your Zoom meetings all have passcodes.

Lena, Caitlin or IC chairs

• Who will be able to participate in Vanguard testing? Vanguard institutions. This is a chance to see what our data looks like (without much/no cleanup).

• 5 institutions are already on Alma. What is the primary interest in non-vanguard campuses having access to the vanguard instances? To see how data migrates over in different cases, e.g., SCP data. Suggestion to ask which vanguard institutions would be willing to give access to others.

• Only Merced and UCD Law are not participating in the vanguard

• Staff user accounts (permissions, roles, etc.) would need to be created for non-vanguard members, no? Yes. That’s why they will need to request access.

• The Network Zone is going to be new enough to all of us that I can see some utility in giving some degree of access to everyone. +1 from many

• Vanguard is the first opportunity to view how data migrates – we also have the test load that everyone will participate in and that will be a better opportunity to see analytics and how things work.

• Carlo: I do think a good starting proposal for our next IC meeting is NZ open to all, non-vanguard access to IZ to be determined by demonstrated need

• Tom: As Greg mentioned earlier, there needs to be some coordination with the campus IC to have accounts created. So, we need agreement from them. It will be part of the discussion.

Dominique, Catherine, Neil

• Thank you for your patience as we get training going

• Basecamp is the home for training materials and where Q&A questions go. IT group will pull out all the information for local campus groups.

• Questions for the first Q&A session are due July 8

• Every Wednesday you will get an email from the TOC group with details about the weekly training

• IT representatives will send the weekly email to their local groups (customizing the info. as needed)

• SILS chairs will send their group the weekly email. Chairs agreed to send the weekly email.

• IT team is tracking training by campus as well as who is participating from the cohort. This will be done by the IT representative for their campus.

• IT will use a form to collect Q&A questions by Wednesday EOD for the Monday Q&A sessions with Ex Libris

• Certification timeline: Alma Certification will be at the start of September - it’s self-guided and then you take a test.

• If your campus IT member is step B, will that person be doing all the local managing of the training? Yes, by necessity. They will get a template to make it easy.

• Poll results: 75% use the form; 25% submit directly to basecamp
