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.
Item | Desired Outcome | Time | Who | Notes | Decisions | Actions | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Updates from other SILS groups | Share relevant items | 10 min | Josephine Sarah | PPC: approved our Primo VE Configuration Recommendations decision page on 3/12 Internal Training Subgroup: preparing for Primo VE workshop (week of 5/17) by aligning which training videos apply to corresponding sessions. Public Services Escalation Group: At this group’s recommendation, the PPC has approved a new sub-team to be formed to deal with OA Discovery issues (mostly CDI discussions). The team will be 8-10 people from across UC Libraries. |

3 | UC-eLinks | Discuss re-name and logo | 20 min |
| Go with “Get It @ UC”? Alternative idea: “Find @ UC”. There is some concern among some at campuses that changing this now is an unnecessary workload (updating screenshots, LibGuides, etc.). Nearly all the work in changing the name/images will be done by CDL’s Discovery and Delivery staff. Discovery FG members will look at what other institutions have done before we make a final decision. Jess & Josephine meeting with Kimmy Hescock (UCD, SILS graphic designer) this Wed 3/17. Ideas:
Things to consider:
Alison Ray (CDL) provided the following info: A problem specific with the new basic/premium interface is that the button color is tied to three other components

4 | WorldCat | Discuss Basic WorldCat Discovery | 40 min | All | Draft decision pages These pages are stand-alone for each campus. The logo can be whatever we want it to be. If we don’t link to the pages from anywhere, the only way people would find these pages would be through web searches or through stumbling through some obscure navigation pathways from the general WorldCat.org site. These basic WCD instances are inseparable from the libraries' subscriptions to FirstSearch (which we do not generally point users to). |
