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.

| 2 | Boosting | Discuss boosting methodologies | 25 min | All | What’s working? What is not working? JW: Keeping MVP in mind; continue to modify; institutional boosting at 100 was “too much” and wasn’t surfacing articles. Experimented by comparing test to production:
HW: How does FRBR and Dedup play into this? LN: UCB not seeing article issues- seems ok with the boosting at 100; bigger campuses may have a different set of numbers due to collection size. | For MVP: already Alma campuses will experiment and compare results to production; non-Alma campuses will compare to UCD production

|
| 3 | WorldCat | Check-in | 25 min | All | Different approaches to WorldCat Integration & Access JT: recommending two or three access points to WorldCat UCI and UCSC examples SS: broken WorldCat API; separate API keys for different functionality (analytics, cataloging); created search profile LN: Added to Advanced search; set of librarians testing and providing feedback re: al the ways WorldCat can be added JC: UCD discussed options; adding in link as well as search profile (feedback so far- better than nothing in profile) CM: Added in radio button; planning to test something new EA: UCI Fulfillment FG and EUOS FG, PSEG reps are making a decision re: basic vs full WorldCat MY: Sharing with IC; do we have a choice fulfillment wise? HS: Link in facet and on no results page- will these be used? Do they work? Confirming that current Melvyl permalinks are still active in basic WorldCat; account info (lists?) will carry over too Note: bundled with FirstSearch (contract up in 2 years: usage? linked to other tools/resources?) | Continue to talk with with our local campuses |
|
| 4 | Check Ins | Discuss updates/problems/testing | 30 min | All | Opportunity to check in on local implementation:
Meeting and reviewing spreadsheet from already Alma campuses Note RMFG document with changes re: field updates Question re: harmonizing labels for item status related to fulfillment ILL issue: other campuses' DDA materials; other campuses' ebook Update: all campuses are subscribing to Browzine/LibKey next year | Begin documenting messaging to share with EUOS re: expectation and user experience (for exp. seeing ebook records from other campuses) |
