Background

ExLibris documentation: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Training/Extended_Training/Presentations_and_Documents_-_Authorities

https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/010Alma_Migration_Considerations_for_Consortia

https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/040Resource_Management/040Metadata_Management/060Working_with_Authority_Records#Adding_a_Local_Authority_Definition

From Phase 3:

“Local authority record conversion is not part of the migration scope of Alma. If you have locally created or modified authority records to load into your local institution, use the standard Alma loader tools post-migration. In a consortial setup, they likely reside in the Network Zone for sharing across members. Contact your local Ex Libris project team for consultation if this is relevant for your institution. ”So Ex Libris says local authority records go last - do we disagree for any reason?

Questions to consider

What local authorities files do campuses have?

UCLA has SARs and other authorities to test

UCSD has local non-series authorities to test

UCB has some local non-series authorities, unsure if they will be able to test them but definitely open to it

What information is in them that we want to port over?

Series treatment

Fully local records: names, subjects

What do campuses want to use local authorities for (i.e. anything that would wind up in an NZ bib or just for local reference?)

Series treatment (used at check-in and other areas)

Local authority management/creation

Can non-series authorities be added to the NAF?

Should they live in an IZ or in the NZ?

Do local decisions about certain LCSH terms have any bearing on this (Illegal Aliens, for example)?

Pros and cons for using IZ vs. NZ for campus authority records?

What do we want to test during the Vanguard stage?

How to local authorities interact with global ones

Are links between local ARs and other types of records maintained?

Who (campuses or SILS groups) needs to talk to Ex Libris and when?

UCLA and RMFG chair have both posted to Basecamp, waiting for responses.
