| No Product Council Update | PC did not meet this week (pre-empted by stakeholders' meeting) | |||||||||||
| Re-ranking (Capacity Planning Review) debrief | Laura E Daniels | Consistent definition of "Go live" is desirable. Does go live mean "deal-breaker" or is a separate "deal-breaker" flag needed? What are we all considering "go-live" to mean? Jennifer Eustis said at 5-colleges "Go Live" means "deal-breaker". Cornell was not necessarily thinking this way. They were considering work-arounds, if a work-around is available then they were not assigning a "go-live" status. Ann Kardos - Commented that this is an opportunity to rethink what they are doing completely. Patty - "Go-live" was chosen instead of "deal breaker" to convey a concept of a "pioneer spirit". Jason - Some institutions are more risk adverse than others. Jason pointed out the concept of the MVP is a different construct than a "Go-live" Suggestion: The need for clarification should go to Product Council. Christie Thomas - "Go-live" should be deal-breakers. At Chicago they are trying to be accommodating to contribute, however, even if a workaround is possible, it is not necessarily feasible. We should assume best intentions - everyone is trying their best. Sara - The Jira tickets are not as clear as they could be. They are easily interpreted in different ways. The review may need to be done multiple times, possibly looking at issues in a holistic way. Having conversations about the Jiras is an important component. Charlotte (via chat) - "Presentation of new features, and discuss them in context of existing features, could be a ‘monthly’ topic on the MM-SIG agenda" Patty - A Jira filter can be made to enable a list of Jiras pertinent to this group to display. | ||||||||||
| Subgroup Updates and Other Updates | Data Import - Not currently meeting. They developers are working on the back end. MARCcat - In last meeting a ranking was reviewed. Missing features were reviewed. Ann-Marie noted the desire for MARCcat to be available for testing. Charlotte noted that while everything may not be ready, it may be advantageous to supply the group with something to look at. Charlotte suggested that we may want to consider two steps - 1) having MARCcat, out of context with FOLIO and 2) then, when ready, MARCcat in FOLIO. | |||||||||||
| Batch Editing in FOLIO | Use cases for batch editing needs both within and across apps: 1) Identification & selection of records to be acted on 2) Definition of edits to be made (and implementing those changes) e.g., find/replace; delete field
Where/how should the identification & selection occur? Where/how should the editing occur? | |||||||||||
Multiple Graphical Representations | STILL ON HOLD for future meeting (possibly with representative members from Tech Council) working document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1e6zlt7Gsd50W1HsRWWM6aerClXYe1l7XACaInVuWcoE/edit Problems:
Functional requirement: Create an instance record and be able to have multiple graphical representations of the language, or be able to put a non-transliterated title that can be searched in other scripts. Note: Charlotte has added following feature description (UXPROD) in Jira:
Christie expressed hesitation about being too prescriptive about what the JSON should look like. She suggested spending time on the Functional Requirements. Suggestions for additional functional requirements were added to the Google doc: DRAFT - Multiple graphical representations in FOLIO. (Also linked above.) The group also would like to make recommendations as to what this should look like in the FOLIO interface. Example systems that work well? | |||||||||||
| Future meeting topics | Source of truth (SRS). Review the FOLIO metadata flow based on test of the newly implementation of edit freeze of records in Inventory when having only SRS and Inventory installed. Is the freeze to happen between SRS and Inventory, or freeze of Inventory is only when there is a MARCcat equivalent of the Inventory record? Rename the Notes accordion in Instance, Holdings, Item and Container record to be renamed, in order to distinguish between the new Notes app (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1BMitl09O4C_cg2cN34T5ofZ88Xg3ub3RysDfS6Vue20/edit#slide=id.p) and the notes we have in the metadata records. Inventory Permissions (
Search enhancements - possible also look at more general requirements for defining search, e.g. when to use: Phrase search, Truncating (left and/or right), Stemming, Nested search, Boolean search, etc. (TC and MM task) Authority Data and Inventory Vision (small group work first) Discovery – need to clarify sources of data for discovery vs. data needed for operations; this needs to be documented for the entire FOLIO community and direction should come from Product Counil Item record statuses and the apps that affect them Music / Maps / Media cataloging review of data elements in Inventory Felix (via chat) "@charlotte: I could ask a colleague (from one of the 180 network libraries) if she/he could review the beta elements from a 'musical' point of view." Texas A&M may have a music cataloger that can help. Christie offered to load cartographic and music data from other libraries into their test FOLIO instance. Jennifer (via chat): We should also look at video as well. Videos have other standard numbers EAN for instance and fields that people like to search and discovery them by https://wiki.folio.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=78336464 |
