Discussion items

DISCOVERY VISION: We strive to design and implement the best possible discovery and delivery experience for our end users using data-driven decision making. We envision a network zone experience that will allow users to discover library materials across UC collections without sacrificing relevant results. As such, the default search and results interface should prioritize the success of typical users while providing additional functionality for more advanced users.

  • Jess & Josephine met with co-chairs of End User Outreach Subgroup (EUOS) [Stacy Brinkman & Melanie Ramiro] last Wed to discuss branding, logo, and graphic designer.

  • Action item from that mtg: Josephine contacted Lena Zentall (project manager) to ask who would put out call for a graphic designer (preferably someone from a UC campus) and what group would that person be placed into

  • Governance task force being assessed; questionnaire forthcoming asking for feedback

Lena’s reply[7/23/20]:

“the first step is {for Discovery} to make recommendations on branding to the SILS Working Group before any actions are taken. It's too early to consider hiring a designer and who would work with the designer. Your research/consulting may indicate that a logo is not needed. It would be useful in your recommendations to include a timeline/deadlines for when you need various deliverables.”

Feedback on Discovery Network Scope and Consortia Union View Summary

View feedback gathered from local campuses

15 min

All

Discussion of responses from ExLibris by Jess.

Review of the feedback from local campuses.

  • Fulfillment, esp. for non-UC materials, was one of the most mentioned concerns by those consulted.

  • Still investigating what the ILL Fulfillment process looks like; what will users see and what will they have to do to be able to discover and see what is available.

  • The flexible nature of Primo VE in both Discovery Network Scope and Consortia Union View creates a lot of questions.

  • The CARLI group might be the first to deploy a Consortia Union view soon.

  • What goals/objectives would we want a Consortia view to be able to do?

  • Melvyl WorldCat local will not overlap with new catalog; we will be linking out to Worldcat.org

  • A variety of flavors of “request” at different institutions for ILL fulfillment; Look for guides which walk through process for ILL requests via Worldcat.org

  • Consider starting a limit by availability discussion document

Answer from ExLibris re: staff benefits of a union view?

”There is no specific feature or functions that staff users have access in a consortia union view as they would not have access in the institutional view.

As to workflow efficiencies using a union view, it has to be discussed in ALMA collaborative network how your consortium will share centrally managed resources, and how to use fulfillment network to support requests and view online services from other institutions. Primo VE is just a discovery and delivery layer for ALMA.

There is no web crawling or Search Engine Optimization benefits to having a union view.”
