Check-in / updates

Information sharing and problem-solving

10

All

RMFG: working on finalizing testing documents and what to send to internal training. Also starting a discussion around OCLC updates. It would be nice to know when we can implement them and what the scope would be since some campuses are trying to re-evaluate workflows that might change if they are set up.

TSELG: the group made decisions about UC ETDs. RMFG was asked to investigate 4 issues: standardization of MARC records; distribution of MARC records from Merritt to NZ; distribution of revised Alma NZ records back to Merritt; distribution of MARC records to OCLC.

DISCOVERY: working on pulling together recommendations made in our subgroup Primo VE usability testing work in December. We plan to have our summarized recommendations for test load testing ready and delivered to IC’s by March 1st. Topics are based upon ExL configuration workbook forms.

Decisions

Approve decisions

Discussion topic: how to approach a decision that is appropriate for a FG but where none of the current FG members have the needed expertise (HathiTrust is one of the example)

Vanguard Testing Worksheet for PPC

Collaborative Workflow Testing

(From Liz) 2 specific questions:

1.) How to document/track work? Shared google docs or individual FG docs linked to the testing sheet?

2.) How to order these so that dependent/related workflows are tested in the right order? For example: re-linking portfolios to/from CZ bibs should come before e-resource receipt/processing so that the building blocks are in place

MVP

Share the experience using the MVP document

Have any item on Systemwide Work sheet been moved to the MVP document?

MVP lightening round is happening next week at SILS Chairs on Wednesday 2/10. Any questions?

Xiaoli

MVP document

What needs to be in OCLC?

Do we need to catalog everything in OCLC?

Is OCLC record number still very important that we need to have it in IZ/NZ?
