| New Facilitator (Ian Walls!) vision | Goal: Make the Implementation Group the go-to place for "how do I...?" and "are you seeing this?" type questions for the FOLIO Community Strategies: - Focus on asynchronous discussion (via Slack) rather than synchronous discussion (via Zoom).
- Work closely with other key groups, such as: data migration, sysops, support SIG, documentation
- Create a searchable archive of answers to community questions
Meetings are for discussions and presentations. Slack channel #folio-implementers is go-to place for questions (and hopefully answers)
Patty: it would be great to have a more interactive implementers group, need more people to come to meetings.
Topic: have circ folks talk about their loan policy settings once a quarter. Less prep-heavy sessions, lots of presentations, helping each other. Thoughout the year, run through all the modules (in presentations).
Tod: How to swap practical advice. Maybe some adjacent topics, not just FOLIO, “how we interact with the registrar” etc Searchable archive:
Tod: how often would answers change. Slack answers are hard to find.
Darsi: pointers instead to wiki documentation, GitHub?
Patty: have had to hunt through wiki is hard. Q&A is all over the place, so would be amazing to have in one place.
Ian: hoping to create some automation. Bywater is working on having documentation. Wants to create a proof of concept and see if it will fly, figure out how to keep it up to date, more folks contribute to it, later. |
| Planning upcoming presentation/discussion topics | Jan 11: Cornell Circ Desk issues/recommendations w/ Holly Mistlebauer Other possible topics to discuss synchronously: - LibCal integration
- externally-managed data processing workflows (bulk item moves)
- overview of how to migrate
- tags. uses, etc
If no agenda, we won’t meet. Will make sure we do have an agenda/meeting at least once a month (Ian will take responsibility for this). Kara: general conversation and questions as an agenda topic occasionally, would be helpful for new folks to the community who aren’t sure where to surface their question |
