Lakshmi/Caitlin/Team

• Lakshmi - brief review of UCD, UCI, UCB tickets included in the 7/19/24 notes

• Gem - update on a particular ticket that ExL considered more of an ideas exchange

  • ideas exchange was presented, then bounced back by ExL and asked that a ticket be created

  • this type of endless circle is not the type of response we want to see from ExL

• Greg - ExL response that it cannot duplicate issues listed in tickets

  • has anyone else experienced this?

  • Tom - would be nice to share the issue via a zoom call

  • UCSD used a HAR file for the last ticket (tracks network activity) - used this method to share a problem with ExL

    • feels more like a customer service issue

  • Gem - usually this response is when there are months between updates on the tickets (zoom cast of the issue has been shared, but the link expires before they can view it), not sure if all the steps that led to the issue are being followed by ExL, does not feel this is a new issue

  • Caitlin - is there a pattern in recent tickets?

    • request from SILS OT members to provide the actual ticket #s that have this non-reproducibility issue - for presentation to the new customer support representative Matt Baker

  • Xiaoli - tickets close after 14 days, but have recently been extended to 28 days

•  All SILS OT members to share specific ticket numbers for problems that ExL cannot duplicate in Slack

Team

• Greg: commenting on a closed ticket doesn’t reopen it anymore. Kudos to the CS guy - he said this should work, but now we have to use the clone feature. But you have to reference the old case and it’s a pain.

• Ex Libris is giving us one sandbox opportunity to preview the new Title UI (changes how results appear when searching in Alma)

  • goes live in November with an opt in the few months prior

  • can set this up in NZ and work with individual campuses on further access

  • ExL might explore offering this preview-type option with future updates

  • Gem will request for NZ for now

• August release - new consortia option

  • can switch to other dashboards that are not your own (configuration viewable only, data not included) - good for future discussion on usefulness of this feature

  • webinar shared by Gem: Consortia Central Configuration dashboard for distributing shared configuration (July 24, 2024) (youtube.com)

Project Team Check-in: EIMP-PT

• Written update provided to OT

• Conversation on feasibility of a permanent group for this work/support this work

21 minutes

Caitlin

• Report for reference: EIMP PT Update, June 2024 - Google Docs

  • Questions to guide the discussion: Can OT have a conversation about the feasibility of a permanent group? Capacity? Transformation?

• This group feels the work is important and should continue, but will need FTE and empowerment.

• How can OT support/incorporate/advocate this type of work that has continuing value?

• LG is also considering this question of creating new groups/use of existing groups

• John suggested repurposing the EDI or CKG group (or another group) for this work

  • Caitlin pointed out that these groups need to feel empowered to make decisions to get work done

• Gem - communication needs improvement (better coordination, had not yet reached out to Discovery)

  • more direct communication between groups

• this group needs to officially request time in the OST or other formal groups

  • Caitlin made comments on the document during the meeting

• EIMP PT group suggestion that there is a need for a general confluence space request

  • Caitlin - suggestion to have less Slack group/Confluence page proliferation and use a more appropriate tool

• Robin - suggestion to add to the charge template a communication expectation/timeline

• Caitlin - suggestion to include which groups need to be communicated with and how to accomplish that
