Topics or questions for the Ex Libris Support Meeting

26 minutes

Jackie/ Team

 

  • Last meeting was 12/15/23

  • Vote on Organization Unit Name Change (Ex Libris Ticket: 06620571)

    • may need to postpone vote to a later date if more discussion is needed

    • risks that could occur in production?

      • possibly analytics - should be cosmetic and ExL says it should be ok (will not loose data)

    • recommendations for testing?

      • Gem could come up with a list

      • best to verify that it’s been solved - order from NZ record

    • In the event of a catastrophe, we will notify ExL right away

    • Timeline?

      • Gem will create Confluence page and then vote

      • Slack discussion as well

      • Quick campus touch base

        • UCSC

          • Concerns: would like to have an email sent out asking if anyone has changed their consortial name (related but different) and see if it changed anything (i.e. analytics) (Gem will send out this email to individuals and ask if consortia they’re involved in did the same)

      • UCR

        • question: regarding the analytics in PSB idea, could we propose if it is cost driven, perhaps select members at an institution having this ability might be possible?

    • Ideally would like to have analytics in the Sandbox to be able to test things like this in the future (add to next ExL meeting)

 

@Gem Stone-Logan to create a Confluence page with information on the Organization Unit Name Change to inform our timeline
@Gem Stone-Logan to email Alma list serve and consortium list serve regarding organization unit name change and impacts (particularly analytics)
@Gem Stone-Logan to ask ExL at the next support meeting for dates on which they could provide the most support
@Gem Stone-Logan will create a short list for testing in relation to the Organization Unit Name Change

Proposal for Expanded NZ Access

  • continue to discuss document sent to OT via Slack

  • Goal: provide feedback and vote on the proposal to Resource Management

18 minutes

Jackie/Team

  • Document for review: Proposal for Expanded Network Zone Access

  • Discussion points:

    • Gem - test with a few campuses?

    • shared accounts - data privacy concerns

    • named accounts - double counting for the consortia?

    • need clarity on next steps

    • expired accounts still get counted by ExL (must be deactivated to avoid this)

    • would like to see a process for when someone leaves with security issues

    • SILS Ops was not consulted beforehand - would like to see this proposal reworked with input from Gem and Caitlin

  • As it stands, we have a number of questions/feedback that should be addressed first before final voting

    • provisional vote for now to approve - Ask Hermine additional questions (especially on the management aspect) and vote again.

    • bring this back to the group again after revisions and input from Gem and Caitlin for review and an additional vote

 

@Jackie Gosselar will respond to Resource Management with feedback and a provisional yes vote for the Proposal for Expanded Network Zone Access
