Topics or questions for the Ex Libris Support Meeting

14 minutes

Jackie/ Team

 

  • last met on 4/19/24 (attended by Gem and Jackie)

    • UCR ticket related to SQL (sp?) attack discussed at length

      • ExL was unable to offer much on their side to avoid this issue in the future, other than white listing our current campus IPs

      • does not account for bad actors within that list - a concern

      • they are unable to provide any kind of report

      • question: why were they not more proactive on this issue?

      • this topic needs more discussion - need more ExL support personnel involved directly

        • open invitation to SILS OT members to attend such a meeting

    • Download binary file from Import report not working

      • expressed our dislike of stock answers to closed tickets

      • ExL is considering a change to their workflow to include more information about why a ticket is closed when it is closed

    • Gem added outstanding tickets

    • List of tickets closed without a fix: Closed Defect without a fix

  • next meeting is 5/24/24

SILS Membership Transition

  • any takers for position of VC for SILS OT?

  • election timeline:

    • poll distributed on 5/1/24, nomination set by 5/29/24 with voting complete the week prior

5 minutes

Jackie/Sarah

  • Sarah reminded members to put their names or the names of colleagues forth for VC

    • Jackie, Sarah, and Tom are unfortunately not available for this position

    • vote will close 2 weeks from today (5/15/24), but ideally respond by 5/7/24 for SILS OT SC to discuss

    • Sarah to send out a poll to SILS OT members

 

 

4

Alma Data Privacy

  • Ensure all Alma accounts holders have signed the Data Privacy Agreement - discuss if this should this be an annual task

12 minutes

Caitlin/Sarah

  • Should this be an annual task? Something that OT manages?

    • suggestion: send an annual email with a request to answer and acknowledge that their campus is in compliance

    • vote put to SILS OT: make this more of a reminder as opposed to a task

      • add to OT Work Plan?

      • still a task for each individual campus to ensure compliance - especially any shared accounts

    • NZ access

      • current NZ policy is that campus staff have to sign the NZ form as well

      • campus data security agreement and NZ data security agreement should both be signed

  • Data Privacy Agreement will become an annual reminder for each campus to be in compliance. No longer considered an official task for SILS OT.

 

5

SSO use in the NZ

  • introduce and discuss options

  • should this be implemented?

20 minutes

Gem

  • Document for discussion: SSO Options for Network Zone Accounts

    • Current users mostly include: CDL users with UCOP accounts and CDL Shared Collections users who have UCSD accounts

    • UCOP SAML login currently does not allow signing out

      • need to shut down the browser to “log out”

      • it might time out though

    • would like to do additional testing before implementation

    • OT is the official administrator of the NZ

  • Gem is seeking official approval of implementing SSO in the NZ

    • approved by OT

  • current options for SSO implementation (2):

    • use UCOP proxy

      • like UCPath, choose your campus from a drop down menu

      • unable to log out though

    • use individual campus SSO

      • ExL would be in charge of the interface setup

      • Side note: UCSD needs a system ID in addition to the SSO - would this be an issue for this option?

  • Question: does anyone object to using the UCOP proxy?

    • Gem would like to proceed with testing - no objections

    • If the UCOP proxy works, there will be no need to go the route of individual campus SSOs.

  • Gem has approval to use and test the UCOP proxy for UCOP staff
