2021-06-22 Com Leads Meeting notes

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

Go Live communications week of go-live

• (ask to be sent on 7/27) OP: Congratulations message from UC president will be published by OP (Consider having President’s message sent after go-live to mitigate for lateness. What’s the right amount of time to mitigate for possible lateness but not wait too long?)

• (Deadline?) 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.

  • create a version in the event go-live is delayed.

• 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.

• SILS News: 7/29 or 7/30 (or when all campuses are live) Congratulations! live with MVP - more decisions and work will be coming; and here’s what’s coming next. Reminder of UC-wide town hall on 8/2.

• Ben and Adrian will reach out to OP to learn what the right amount of time is to queue up and/or delay a message for the congratulatory message coming from the President. How easy is it to change the send date? If difficult, push out the send date. Note: GW still needs to confirm that OP would send out the message.

• We will need 2 versions of email templates to send to ULs: 1 if campuses go live as scheduled, 1 if they do not.

• Ben will ask for local Communications contact at campuses for sending the UL message at each campus.

“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.
