Per Caitlin in Slack on 11/24: to be conducted prior to going Live. Professional Services is tentatively expecting this to occur in early June.
Note though that we cannot plan a specific week right now - as (1) we need to know how the test load timing works and (2) then can determine the Cutover timing. The reason for having to know the Cutover timing is that we need to have the/an Alma and Primo VE environments available for this workshop (so cannot be locked down for Cutover work).
Dates for Alma Analytics workshop (post-go live)
Per Caitlin in Slack on 11/24: to be conducted after Go Live. Date still TBD but will occur prior to moving to Support (so most likely in Aug or Sept).
Outstanding Spring Workshop/Training questions (from 11/19 meeting):
Will consortial resource sharing and consortial fulfillment be part of the standard workshop schedule?
What would a Law library independent training look like (for Davis, and possibly others)?
Summary of activities: • The migration scope is standard: only bibliographic, items, holdings, patrons, loans and fines data will be migrated. Migration of link resolver data, acquisitions data and ERM data is not supported when a library is added to a live Alma institution. • Law library data will be appended to the UCD Alma institution. Data deduplication is not supported. • Migrated data must be provided according to the following requirements: o Libraries and location codes, item barcodes, and patron IDs must be unique. Customer is responsible for adjustments that may be needed to ensure unique codes. For additional information see Combining Multiple Source Databases into One Alma Institution.
• UCD Law will extract source ILS data according to Ex Libris specifications. For additional information see Millennium and Sierra (III) to Alma Data Delivery and Migration Guide. • UCD will adjust the existing Alma configuration including 3rd party integrations to support the Law library addition on the production environment. Ex Libris will provide guidance and support in this process. • Ex Libris will copy the UCD Alma production environment to an implementation environment where migration is done. • UCD Law data will be migrated to the implementation environment and will be tested by the customer. • Upon approval, UCD institution including Law data and configuration will be copied to the UC consortium environment. • UCD will work with the Law library staff to provide training in the local use of Alma and Primo. • Implementation activities and services will take place as an integrated part of the UC SILS systemwide Alma implementation project.
Future IT meeting conversation: what are your expectations for how long this group will continue work? How long are you available?
@Caitlin Nelson will follow up on consortial resource sharing question
