OCLC working on getting Tipasa sandboxes up. Offered a ‘Tipasa sandbox kickoff’ to
* show off the sandboxes
* bit of training
* answer questions
* discuss other support options (possibly UC/OCLC office hours)

OCLC also wants to run some ideas of theirs about multiple libraries & OCLC symbols on a single Tipasa instance

OCLC Real Time Availability

I’m interested but haven’t looked into this in any real way, anyone else interested or looked into this?

I assume we can do this individually… am I wrong?

Capture important topics for future discussion

‘pu anywhere exceptions’: review shared messages, what would be next steps
metrics on how often ‘pu anywhere’ requests have to be changed to home campus (Jason) → may lead to: editing pu loc for this requests → may lead to: harmonizing bookbands

is the “randomized” part of the rota building actually randomizing things? Jason has a hunch that within the geographical groups it’s creating them alphabetically. (discovered in reviewing schedule c report)
