1-2 MM members needed for Documentation Working Group (Inventory, QuickMARC, Data Export)

https://wiki.folio.org/x/8kAuAg

Please reach out to dracine if you have any questions

Should we document an older version of FOLIO, especially Inventory? There have been major changes due to Elastic Search and we should maybe focus on Kiwi?

The "Tips and Tricks" section in the FOLIO wiki can be used to document older versions and also link out to the current documentation docs.folio.org

This is the last meeting with Laura as SIG convener. She will stay in the project and with MM SIG. Raegan and Felix will take over as Co-convener.

There was a recent change to the name of instance HRID and UUID in source record storage. The first is to rename instance_id to external_id and then instance_hrid to external_hrid. It looks like the API for source record storage has externalID, externalHrid, instanceID, instanceHrid. It is difficult to follow changes to MARC SRS which can sometimes be buried in code commits. Changes to MARC SRS and even how MARC SRS manages marc records is important not just for FOLIO Apps but also reporting tools such as the LDP. What type of information do we expect and need in terms of MARC SRS?

• Reason for label change: Introduction of MARC holdings in SRS
• Renaming a property is a so called "breaking change" and therefore very costly (developer time)
• Folijet or Spitfire made the changes
• It was neccessary due to the implementation of MARC holdings
  • Ann-Marie Breaux (Deactivated) Can you add your explanation how why this was needed?
• The change was not reviewed by TC
• There is information about such changes in the FOLIO release notes (besides the code commits) → N.B. nothing in the RN yet. This change will be in Kiwi.
• The change affects other apps and they need to be updated now
• We need to make sure that in the future such changes are communicated in advance so that libraries and other apps can prepare.
