Checkin/quick updates/anything from parking lot, slack or email

  • Don’t forget to check the Task report for your outstanding tasks and check them off when done.

All

  • Who will manage go-live announcements? What have other consortia done to share go-live announcements? (is this EUOS work or project work? Both?) We will need to set expectations around the time of go-live (morning, noon, later? ICs are discussing. Preference is for each campus to message on their own.)

    • 7/27 Gunter & Chris: Thank you to the cohort - Day of go live. recognize all the effort that went into getting us to go-live. Work continues but taking a moment to thank everyone.

    • 7/27 Com Leads: Template for each UL to send to their own campus. Get input from EUOS and IT. Reiterate - ensuring staff know they won’t be experts in the new system on day one. Insert your local links to FAQ, Primo search, training docs and other important links.

    • (ask to be sent on 7/27) OP: Congratulations message from UC president will be published by OP

    • SILS News: 7/29 or 7/30 Publish Congratulations; live with MVP - more decisions and work will be coming; and here’s what’s coming next. Reminder of UC-wide town hall.

  • FYI From SILS Steering 5/28: Socializing the new structure:

    • More documentation around the CDL role would help with socializing the new structure. CDL as operational center is being worked on now that Caitlin is back. CDL as OC will evolve – much will not be understood until we start using the NZ. There could be the need for tweaks after NZ becomes operational

    • Without a proactive message, there could be anxiety about all the pieces that aren’t fully worked out yet (such as CDL as OC). How do we roll this out? SGTF should involve Com Leads to help them develop messaging and disseminate the information.

    • There is a cultural change that is coming with this move from the project to the new UCLAS-integrated structure. DOC could help with this.

    • A webinar on this new structure, where CDL as OC fits in, how evolution of this gov structure and CDL as OC will be organic and necessary (not a cause for stress) and not made inside of a vacuum, examples of how decisions would be made (the structure in action).

  • Next steps from Steering:

    • SGTF will reach out to Com Leads for assistance with messaging out to cohort and

    • Setting up a communications plan - including DOC (UCLAS) and CDL (Ops Center)

    • Advice from Com Leads: When SGTF final package is made public, share it in SILS News and announce a webinar is coming. Determine timing. Before go live or later? Suggest September TH4All devoted solely to SGTF. Who is the audience? all staff. Ask SILS Chairs for topics for other single focus monthly TH4All’s.

“This month in SILS” PILOT

Start of the month talking points about SILS; release as a SILS News.

Workflow:

  • Last week of the month: Ask via SILS Chairs slack channel - what’s your “need to know” (for library staff) for this month to share in SILS News? If you were speaking at a TH, what’s the one thing your group would want to share.(OK if you don’t have anything). Share answer in SILS Chairs slack (meet people where they are.)

    • SILS PM talking points

    • EUOS news releases talking points

  • Com Leads refine it. Ready to go out on the first of the month as a SILS News.

  • Reminder at the SILS chairs meeting.
