No meeting Monday, October 21

Calendar doesn’t allow opening/closing times except on the hour and half hour (i.e., it’s not possible to set a closing time for 11:45 PM).  Cheryl will poll the group via Jira to see how big this issue is for other libraries than Chicago.  This also affects hourly due dates, since they can be truncated to closing time, opening time the next day, or closing the following day.  Cheryl will bring up this issue next Thursday. Erin will facilitate this meeting as Andrea will be away.

25 minISBNs Charlotte Whitt 

ISBNs are a repeatable element in the inventory.  Inventory searches by ISBN search across all (and right truncate to handle ISBNs with extra information, e.g. “ pbk.”, at end of number).  Inventory handles both 10 and 13-digit ISBNs and may eventually be able to search with either 10 to 13 and find either form.  There is also a field for invalid ISBNs.  Searches will be able to be done in MVP with or without hyphens (and it won’t matter whether the record has either form).  Relais D2D (https://www.oclc.org/en/d2d.html) uses ISBN searching, and that may mean it will need to convert between 10- and 13-digit forms of ISBNs in MVP for searches of the catalog via z39.50.  D2D is used by Chicago, Cornell, Duke, and Lehigh.

Patron notesErin Nettifee

Should patron notes be handled as blocks?  The title, type, and date should display in the accordion (not just a counter).  The title is more important than the type if space is a consideration.  Emma will follow up on this.

25 minUpdate on circ rulesCate Boerema

Cheryl Malmborg is the new PO for circulation rules.  Syntax for Circ Rules on Github (https://github.com/folio-org/mod-circulation/blob/master/doc/circulationrules.md).  UXPROD-2130 (https://

net/browse/UXPROD-2130 ) is on Lost item fee policies, overdue fine policies, and loan limit policies in circulation rules editor.  Outstanding circ rules features have to do with implmenting features from Filip's original vision in https://discuss.folio.org/t/loan-rules-ux-iteration-4/834.  

Institutions should read the documentation and try to implement their rules and policies in FOLIO.  It is functional, and Chalmers is using it, so it is testable.  Testing can be done by checking items out and viewing the applied loan policy (it displays right on the checkout page).  Feedback should be given within RA SIG to help prioritize remaining work.  Chalmers had a positive experience. 

Test Loan Rules Feature was not ranked highly by all, but it really needs to be in place before "go live."

Issues with specifying loan rules by library were discussed.  Demonstration of using "OR" logic was hindered by paucity of records in inventory, but was successfully demonstrated.
