Where do we go from here?

Very Near Term (1-3 weeks)

1. Share results from our local projects with each other

2. Identify current local customizations.

   1. What problems did those address?

      1. Did they solve the problem?

   2. Which customizations should we catalog?

      1. both config changes and code changes

      2. give preference to the most impactful changes

Near Term (3-6 weeks)

1. Review the shared results and look for common problems or problems that would benefit from a coordinated effort across campuses

2. Accessibility Audit

Longer Term

1. Interest in gaining more expertise with metrics via analytics (both Alma and Google)
