Unmediated patron requestsNoah

  • https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1gZzOT1QR37rMpGWIXwQYRI35d_5v5fHd

    • Folder which houses documentation on unmediated requesting
    • Mostly user stories; feel free to add information as you see fit
  • 'Unmediated patron requesting' is defined differently across consortia & libraries.  Points of discussion include:
    • single vs. cross-tenant functionality
      • Does this idea get more complicated by FOLIO's micro services structure?  Would this require all parties be on the same release?  
    • borrowing functionality in FOLIO vs. using an outside software such as ReShare or ILLiad
      • Preference by most in the group is to have functionality inside FOLIO
    • ability to verify and document patrons without the need to download ALL patrons into FOLIO
      • How does a library provision a first-time user in their system?
      • Are there ways to do so without manually creating a new user?  Or checking an outside system for authentication?
  • UXPROD-795
    • General consensus that the group prefers Option #1 under the Checkout Requirements section

Round Robin ALL
  • Hedda
    • Working on ILL for their region in Germany.  Will likely take a year to completion, but will present the solution when completed to this group.
  • Zorian
    • Nothing new to report from the ERM SIG
  • Joe
    • Take a hard look at ReShare if the functionality isn't included in FOLIO within the next ~1.5 years
    • Will report out as project progresses
  • Noah
    • PALNI is also keeping an eye on ReShare
    • 3 levels of requesting for them: within PALNI, within the state, OCLC
  • Jaime
    • Opened discussion on experience with various discovery services
  • Corrie
    • Discussion about consortial issues from an administrative perspective vs. those from consortial libraries sharing a single tenant
    • How do we keep track?  
    • Corrie volunteered to start a document tracking individual libraries in a single tenants requests for review.

Library ImplementationALL
  • How do we help small libraries implement FOLIO?  Is a shared tenant the best way?
  • FOLIO relies heavily on API, DevOps experts which can create complications for libraries without an IT expert or librarian with systems knowledge
    • Further complication: different countries governing laws and practices
    • How does hosting play into this discussion?
  • Impacts implementation, not just ongoing maintenance
  • Improved cross-tenant functionality would alleviate the issues of putting too many libraries on a single tenant
    • Bridges vs. walls: bridges between tenants or walls within a single tenant?
  • Which SIG is the best place to take these questions?  Is this within the scope of this SIG?
  • More discussion to come

Action items

  •  Corrie will create a document to explore & track requests from libraries on a shared tenant
