	Item	Desired Outcome	Notes	Decisions / Discussion	Actions
1	Sharing and Updates	Share any Discovery related information from other SILS groups	UCLA’s weird Primo VE issue: Was a result of Ex Libris testing in production. From Jackie: Many, significant problems with Primo VE and screen readers. Will be meeting with web accessibility people to research more.
2	UX Subgroup updates		Small meeting: Talked about Hathitrust collection Examples of labels and general issues to discuss. May 2023 release notes. Resource type filter bar can be turned on. UCLA is reviewing but doesn’t like it. However, it may be the new future of Primo VE.
3	UC SILS Community Slack	Determine if we want to add any additional channels.	UC SILS Community Slack #alma-idea-exchange - Should we add one for primo? Do we wand a general slack for discovery?	Gem will go ahead and make the slack channels and let UC SILS discovery know when it’s done.
4	Follow-up: Database Search	Need examples - Should we set aside a meet as a work session to look for examples?	Decision Page: https://uc-sils.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DIS/pages/2129297409 Collecting https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JBn7QAtqNV1A7IhBB1nqg5GnSCUqvp7GlfHKI5HMIa4/edit?usp=sharing FYI: https://uc-sils.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ER/pages/1865613330	This feels like it’s not as high of priority right now as it’s not going to replace anyone’s A-Z list. Still likely data quality issues but we’ll plan to submit tickets as needed. Change decision page to Stalled.	Document Database Search failures so we can start identifying the multiple issues affecting searches.
5	Follow-up: Hathi Trust	Need examples	Tracking page: Spreadsheet Report:	Looks like the adding the worldwide collection may have resolved the ranking issues. Remaining campuses will test 5 each and we’ll review next time.
6	Thoughts from ELUNA		Not a lot of concrete examples of improvements to Primo VE. They’re talking about upgrading discovery in a few years to incorporate AI, new indexing, etc.
7	Any outstanding SLACK questions or other things that have come up?		May 1 - Jesse - Exclude from discovery Network test See it in UCSF, UCM, UCB UCLA and UCSC don’t see it. UCSC did explicitly setup the search profile to exclude it.
8	Review Workplan	Postponed	Work Plan
