1 | (Op Leads) Communication flows See 5/5 Op Leads (PM) meeting notes and scenarios
| Com Leads to understand and document information flows internally within the cohort and externally to campuses. Understand if the PPC practices would extend to all coordination level groups (IC, PPC, TOC) or if other communication flows are needed. | 30+ | PMs, Caitlin, Com Leads, Xiaoli | PPC notes: 2020-05-01 PPC Meeting notes Communications: impact as a criteria when contacting other groups
Notes on external communications: 2020-04-28 Op Leads Meeting notes
Notes on “buddy system”: 5 campuses have already gone through a migration! Buddy system: Can we pair an Alma UC with a non-Alma UC? Notes on communicating with campus staff (“homework”): 2020-05-05 Op Leads Meeting notes Scenario: A FG needs more information in order to answer a policy question. They might address this by:
New Communications Paths Draft (5/14) Principles:
(Audience IC, ILSDC, Patron Data, FG, ELGs) Have a question? Start here:
Intra-SILS groups communication: principle of widespread questioning, with vetting by Coordinator group
Use email listserv, not Slack. Email will allow for threaded responses and keeps the conversation together. SILS-to-campus communication. Principle: don’t overwhelm campus staff with too much, or overlapping work.
SILS-to-Ex Libris communication. Principle: no bottlenecks.
SILS-to-external-world communication (asking questions). Principle: don’t burn our cred with peer consortia, or ask overlapping questions, or silo information.

Future Agenda items
PM Leads to determine what the highest value meeting time would be for SILS project co-chairs (Chris & Günter) to join a meeting/participate.
(PM Leads) Premortem: review plan for actions/mitigating into the future
(Com Leads) Create a Slack channel for cohort members to give thanks to each other. Call it sils-accolades or sils-kudos or sils-shout-outs or sils-gratitude Purpose: encourage members to recognize each other’s efforts; showcase the good work that’s happening; facilitate team bonding. We could mine this channel for possible SILS News, townhalls, project updates, etc. Adrian and Ben get the final word on whether this should be done. If so, it would be part of their communication plan. Also begs the question of other slack channels needed. I will add this topic to a future Ops Leads (COM) agenda.
The SILS mission is to transform library services and operations through innovation and collaboration. The future is shared!
