  • Martina Schildt on vacation Sep 8th - 23rd
  • next meetings: Sep 12th & 21st - possible topics
    • Khalilah Gambrell to present feedback from WOLFcon meeting
    • Proposal by Owen Stephens :
      • UX patterns for common cross-app tasks (e.g. would it be useful to have a UX for a 'quick add' task that could be used in different contexts when you need to create something in another app). I think it would be good to have UX specialists (Kimie, Gill) present for this, and possibly also some Stripes devs (e.g. John C/Zak)
      • Use of shortcut keys and macros for more effective cross-app working  - it also be good to have UX and Stripes/dev knowledge for this discussion I think. I know @Laura (she/they) uses macros so might have insights into the potential for cross-app working
      • Potential for external 'workflow' solutions for cross-app interactions
        • I think 'workflow' is a dangerous term here - in this context it's more about automation than user workflows, although I think there is overlap
        • I was particularly struck by the solution in production at TAMU (Jeremy Huff and Sebastian Hammer presented, the recording is at https://prod-zoom-recordings-openlibraryfoundation-org.s3.amazonaws.com/50dc6c87-3912-43fa-8287-56ec73b12bbb%2Fshared_screen_with_speaker_view%28CC%29.mp4 starting at 3 hrs, 14 min) - I think getting someone from TAMU to talk about how this is used would be v interesting
        • There was also a presentation on the use of a tool called Airflow at Stanford for "bibliographic workflow" but I've not watched that yet so not 100% sure if it is completely applicable - I think the core use case there was systems migration but it may go beyond that

TopicsNotesAI SIG statusAutomaticJIRA ticket
Modals: Warning modals
  • Warning Modals needed when deleting any record in any App when it is the source of truth for other records
  • To avoid dead links, or even disappearing records and information, when deleting a record to which other Apps link or connect or downstream display information regarding, a warning modal should appear informing the user that if they confirm the deletion then the following other records in such-and-such apps will be unlinked or deleted as well



Modals: Shortcut for ENTER key
  • In the User Management SIG today (6/29/2022) it was discussed that it would be convenient to have the ENTER key perform the Primary button function on a modal. 



Wildcards: standardized

  • Wildcards (truncation marks) need to be standardized across all Apps
  • Currently depending on what App either % or * is the truncation mark to use. 



Date formatting

  • How Dates are formatted and entered



Spaces handling

  • Example: In Inventory 'extra' spaces are eliminated,
  • while in Orders they can exist and impact search & retrieval:
    • From Orders: Newspaper  of  extra  spaces  becomes Newspaper of extra spaces in Inventory.
  • If you copy Newspaper of extra spaces from Inventory to search in Orders by Orders Lines, you retrieve nothing, until you add the spaces back



Search: lowercase vs. cap
  • Use of lowercase vs CAP re: searching not consistent,
  • barcode example (in my case, B891369-MHC vs. B891369-mhc) or
  • KW in Inventory searching for something that is an Identifier for example, in my case (MHeb* works but not (MHEB* ... ... different in other apps



Next steps

  • Group will collect use cases where modals need to be moved or resized
  • will reconvene in 2 weeks
