Bib record management in the NZ

Finalize a draft to bring to PPC on 1/8

20 mins

All

The group continued to work through and add to the following document:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LZdfFkEUVR6DdbsaXqtNm7sH1Iq_Qjs2d53XRZpSNe0/edit  

…. a few items of note:

1. Remember, this is only a first pass at this document so don’t worry.

2. A small-ish thing: There is no longer an easy way to keep cataloger statistics by adding the person’s name/initials/etc. to item records (which is how UCSD has been doing stats). Campuses that’re already Alma campuses have been just keeping their stats manually. (UCSD also handles PCC stats differently because they’re a merge library.)

3. Liz will be presenting the document to the Program & Policy Coordinators (PPC) this Friday, Jan. 8.

Look at your comments and resolve them if you feel like they were addressed in the doc.

Configuration form

Review Vanguard decisions, identify questions to ask at Thursday Ex Libris office hours

30 mins

Vanguard page: (Test load) Configuration form Harmonization -- Resource Management

The office hours on 1/7 will be dedicated to the configuration form, are there parts of the form that we have questions about standardizing?

If things come up at your campus that could use a systemwide decision, please add to the list.

OCLC updates

20 mins

Q. Is there a desire to continue testing the OCLC update workflow during test load?

A. Yes. And SCP wants to be included too.

We’ll still put a 908 note in our further tests, so that will help us find them.
