Topics or questions for the Ex Libris Support Meeting

  • discuss most recent ExL support managers meeting

  • last meeting was on 3/15/24

  • updates from Gem

    • Accessibility issues with Primo VE discussed

  • updates from Jackie

    • Next Discovery touched upon

      • not all campuses need to move to this at the same time

      • unclear if this move will be mandatory

      • concern that documentation for VE will continue to be postponed as developers work on Next Discovery instead

    • request for a more detailed list of changes that are made at each release

    • navigation and display error with vernacular script also discussed - ExL will continue to investigate

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3

Organizational Name Change

  • Postmortem

24 minutes

Gem/ Team

  • only 1 surprise

  • Question to OT: Was this the right level of detail for this project?

    • good test run for other similar projects

    • good plan given how little we knew about the outcome of the changes

  • Question to OT: What did you feel went well?

    • communication was good and at an appropriate level - good to loop in other appropriate groups

  • Question to OT: What could have gone better?

    • Gem does not have access to the NZ directly and needs to find someone to partner with for testing

      • should we revisit the implementation decision to not provide NZ access to CDL?

      • could have further implications

      • could also be positive - Gem’s testing could uncover more than a specific question could

      • human collaboration feels more useful overall

      • suggestion to have designated contacts for NZ and IZ

    • observation that this process took a long time (Nov 2022 - Mar 2024) - why? (us, ExL, etc.)

      • wish for things to be clearer from the beginning

      • multiple OSTs were involved, needed to allow time for them to respond, contributed to slowing this process

    • Tools

      • Gem’s documentation/communication was key

    • Side Note: Caitlin, Tom, Jackie, and Liz - during renegotiations, need to bring up the point that questions lead to more questions and clarification from the beginning would be a better plan

Signature Success Program

  • Provide update

0 minutes

Caitlin

Signature Success Program update

  • paused for the moment during negotiations to avoid focus on a checklist vs. larger picture issues

  • discussed earlier

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5

Membership Transition

  • start to solicit VC for SILS OT

13 minutes

Jackie

  • preparing for the transition earlier this year (lesson from last year)

  • considering a revision of the charge (esp. time commitment, membership, and roles)

  • identify a VC earlier than June to help ease the transition process

  • suggestion to consider a co-chair model for this group (similar to current SILS OT SC team) - current role for the Chair is a heavy time commitment, share the load with those involved (Chair, VC, and an additional role?)

  • SILS OT SC will continue to work on the charge and consider the points brought up today
