Discussion items
Item | Desired Outcome | Time | Who | Notes | Decisions | Actions | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | ILSDC monthly checkin | Update and opportunity to surface any questions or concerns
| 10 | Catherine, TJ | Working on prioritization. Talking to ExL about performance issues with large cleanup work. Tested deleting portfolios. Took multiple days to delete SCP post go live. Basecamp ticket to ask about how to best complete this work. SCP from Primo was quicker, deleting from Alma was days. Unsure about time for reindexing. Mentioned doing it at cut over, unsure exactly the timing for this. Alison clarified this would be going with SCP for freeze time before migration. Working on other ILSDC also – what needs to be cleaned up in the IZ and/or NZ. |

10 | Q&A (recurring)
| Q&A during the IC meeting as a first stop before asking a question on Basecamp. If it’s time-sensitive, post to slack (IC channel, SILS Chairs are good options) Any issues that we want to seek broader input from other consortia? | TBD | Carlo |
|
|
|
11 | Questions for Ex Libris PM (recurring) Post questions in Basecamp as they come up. It’s open 24/7! | Note: We lose in efficiency and we may lose in translation when questions go through the PMs. When topics come up that should logically go to Basecamp to the Ex Libris consultants, invite an IC (or appropriate person) to take point on that issue. | 0 | Lena |
