Check-in / updates

Information sharing and problem-solving

15

All

Add group updates ahead of the meeting:

• AEFG 1) wrapped up its additional decision pages, for review, and they include gestures to test load work; 2) identified liaison for Discovery FG work on CDI; made progress on P2E Session after Lisa met with Christine/Lena - this is likely to be either 11/12 or 11/16 based on speakers' availability.

• RMFG started the NZ load order discussion. This week was drafting criteria and asking for campus input on how to rank them, next week we’ll finalize criteria and start talking about how campus data fits those criteria. The plan right now is to finalize the decision at our 11/17 meeting. We also met with the Discovery FG this past Tuesday to talk about how we can provide feedback/help with their usability testing. We had a longer list of known issues than I thought

• TSELG: we reviewed the decisions regarding Marcive records (base file, cost-share, asking RMFG to figure out workflow and record loading) and YBP shelf-ready proposal.

• Fulfillment and ILL FG decided to join in a consulting role for the Discovery FG and EUOS’s End-user Name Subgroup’s November/December work. Re-labeled some of our “Vanguard” decisions pages to “Test”, per our PPC discussion last week. Working through our “How to Integrate an ILL broker with Alma” decision. We’ll be adding a recommendation to harmonize NCIP integration across campuses. This will be coming to PPC to escalate up, since there is a cost for NCIP integration, and we may benefit from having all the campuses negotiate cost together. A decision page that makes recommendations on the handling of SRLF phantom records has been created, and will be worked on during Test by our FG, RMFG, Discovery, and the RLF subgroup.

• Discovery: Our members are working in subgroups to partner with other FGs to work on UX testing questions and user flow; discussions to be collected by 12/1/20. Working on finalizing decision page for Primo VE for the NZ (Consortia Union View).

Vanguard decisions that impact migration

Confirm which VG decisions might impact migration form decisions Vanguard Configuration Form

Do we need a decision page for test load?

10

All

The draft migration form is due on 12/7; the final form is due 12/14.

Note from Liz: the confirguration form isn’t the same as the migration form. Configuration forms shouldn’t be due until January-ish. RMFG had 1 section of the configuration form that dealt with 9XX data and our “local data” page took care of that. We probably should put together a test load page, though.

Communications

IC and PPC co-chairs will meet with SILS steering committee to discuss communications with Ex Libris and between IC and PPC on 11/9

What difficulties have you had /observed?

Do you have any suggestions / solutions?

Xiaoli

More notes from Liz: I think most of the issues boil down to everyone being so busy that “check the decision pages” isn’t as helpful as it should be. Decision pages are a useful place of record to see what’s happening in each group but maybe more formal incorporation of the in progress and recently decided items into each group’s agenda? Even if they aren’t discussed just having them in an updates section might help? Also ask that groups report up? For example most RMFG decisions go directly to ILSDC, which is a subgroup of the ICs but may not get formally reported to the ICs. Also just as a best practice search Confluence if you’re unsure whether something has been addressed. Similar to how we’re expected to interact with Basecamp.

PPC advice

Feedback on the need for a decision page

Beth

PSELG would appreciate PPC’s feedback and advice on the work PSELG related to the OA questions - should we, as a system, use CDI to manage OA resources?

• Short-term: Does SCP (or any campus) need to continue to catalog OA resources? After discussing with RSFG and CDL E-book Strategies taskgroup, the firm recommendation - all campus migrate records. We are unable to harmonize policy before implementation.

• Long-term: Associated with the original questions are multiple philosophical, workload, and work process issues that would need input from multiple stakeholder groups to arrive at a decision. The current SILS structure does not accommodate this type of policy question nor the workflow required to respond. Over the next few months, PSELG is preparing to do some information gathering work on each campus and prepare a document (tbd) to ensure these questions move forward while SILS develops a governance framework.
