Stacks and Acquisitions subgroup
  • Former user (Deleted) introduced himself; described work that Stacks is tasked with working on acq module.
  • Overview of developers: Former user (Deleted) is a dedicated FOLIO developer. Dennis Bridges took over some work that Leah Elzinga had been doing. They are updating ERDs, data flow diagrams, data dictionary. Dennis introduced himself; he is product owner for this. He is Chief Product Officer at Stacks, Inc.
  • Ann-Marie Breaux (Deactivated) clarified that she (mono acq), Anne Cambell, Hkaplanian, John Ballestro, Steve Sellick (UC Boulder) working with the three developers from Stacks to work through these in a small setting. About 50 people will be gathering in Montreal in about 2 weeks to go over a lot of this at a Developers Meeting.
  • JD showed current entity-relationship diagram (ERD); current structure is close to done. He described a lot of the parts of the model, with vendor information, particularly connected to consortia, plus EDI information (this may need some additional work following discussion yesterday).
  • K Martin pointed out that some vendors will have multiple interfaces; may need to change relationship type from one-to-one to one-to-many. They will discuss and investigate in the next week or two. But with discussion, we determined this is actually the ordering platform, not the access platform as Kristin had initially thought. Virginia Martin raised questions about the many diferent platfrms that larger vendors will have - so much acquired from a publisher who is also an access provider and also a vendor; but also other content acquired via subsc agents from the same publisher/access provider. ERM tools and issues have not yet been addressed in this model.
