Sharing and Updates

15

Share any Discovery related information from other SILS groups

LG:

• ExL Renegotiation Team

  • Interested in hearing about any campuses using Ex Libris products outside of SILS.

  • Concerned about how constrained we are with the number of staff accounts we’re allowed.

• Data Privacy team turned in their report and it will be discussed at future meetings.

• UC is running a security review on Ex Libris software.

OT:

• Discussion of how common it is for campuses to have users with only one name.

• Question about a way to hide local copy in Primo VE if it’s unavailable. (There’s a ticket open with ExL.)

• Development for updating linked accounts in real time is likely not going to finish development till November 2024, for release in 2025.

• Discussion of the Tipasa Testing document which we discussed last meeting. Some question of if Rapido could replace VDX instead of Tipasa but according to Alison Ray it would not connect directly enough to OCLC to completely replace VDX functionality. Also, Tipasa is being positioned as an “upgrade” so we wouldn’t have to go through an RFP process.

All-Chairs:

• All operations subteams presented short overviews of what their groups have been working on at the UC-wide SILS Town Hall on Tuesday. A video recording will be available later.

Accessibility update:

• UCOP’s Web Accessibility Specialist has finished looking at Primo VE and is in the process up finishing up findings.
