PPC Meeting 1/8 - Meeting Notes

• SILS FAQ - consider what is surfacing for this in our area to shape into content - for more extended discussion 1/13 ; proposed fiscal close item on FAQ/AEFG notes page, please review and edit by Jan 15.

  • AEFG notes: planning for freeze and cutover. Once ExL completes work on test load, we’ll have the cutover schedule. Plan set a systemwide Acq meeting sometime in Frebruary February to discuss the impact of fiscal close timing and data prep lead time for campuses who need to take additional steps to extract invoice data (UCB and UCSF). Timing will also be heavily impacted by shelter-in-place orders and the backlog that has created.

• Deadlines: for FAQ - end of this week; for MVP, per PPC, sounding like later in January (and definitely before test environment)

•  Holly will update the Confluence page on Shared Vendors
•  Lisa S. to get deadlines for SILS FAQ and MVP documents

Prep for Ex Libris session on electronic resources - 1/21; and Acquisitions 1/25.

See Google Doc to capture questions/items from FG perspective (has message from Internal Training Team to Cohort for links to relevant docs/forms).

Deadline to submit is 01/13/21 for E-Resources; 1/19 for Acquisitions.

Discussion of training and system management post go-live (Phase 5?). We anticipate ongoing issues which need coordination among campuses :

• Mark recommended we maintain a systemwide Acq group.

• Jharina emphasized nature of eResources troubleshooting. The NZ adds a layer of complexity which will need ongoing development of best practices.

• We’ll likely need a central governing body to provide structure and guidance for display decisions, setting expectations (what’s in the NZ, how are overlay priorities set)

Review of SILS Chairs https://uc-sils.atlassian.net/l/c/Qj1rAJ2t meeting notes, item 5, Internal Training:

• Lisa S.: Beyond boilerplate training, what specific trainings do we need to plan for? CDL recharges? Other?

• Holly: Test load priorities (lessons learned from vanguard) how much time do we realistically have to test migrated data, make configuration decisions, and deal with workflows before go-live?

•  identify what we need to schedule for training

Review of Test Load Configuration page (copied from Vanguard version)

Structuring continuation of testing from decision pages, shaping path for full test load / go-live phases.

Planning post-Vanguard activities: workflows to develop; configuration recommendations, etc. Items that may not need harmonization for test load but further out.
