| 45 min | Patty's updates | Patty and group | - Spitfire and Vega developer teams will work on external system IDs and departments. There was a conversation with Kelly Drake about the differences between departments in user records vs course records.
- Seems that the departments brought in via a load should be able to be subscribed to for patrons. At the moment there are two separate department lists. For users it’s largely for reporting on statistics. We may want to support the notion of having only one list; there’s a risk of data drift otherwise.
- For course reserves, it’s more for access and discovery, and is a subset of the larger department list. Next - see if the reserves developers could use a common larger department list.
- Review of UIU-1196 (Erin had contributed comments) - external system IDs. Khalilah had a question - what’s the average number of external system IDs? Duke has several use cases, including Apple ID / Google ID etc. Cornell and others may only need 2 for now (university ID / bar code + network NetID). MeeScan etc. would be covered by SIP2. Discovery - if Blacklight, what does it use for patrons? UChic: VuFind uses Shibboleth, so probably the SSO ID. 6-8 external IDs may be too many, in terms of system complexity.
