2021-07-19 Resource Access Meeting Notes

MSU is looking to implement department delivery and would like to add requestor department as a staff slip token to facilitate this. See UXPROD-3034. Other tokens the SIG would like to see include:

Preferred or "effective" name
Current date
Patron group
Anonymized ID token

What would be ideal is if we could make it possible to add flow logic to template text via an extension on Mustache. Might be easier than adding tokens one-by-one, especially for more complicated ones like effective name, and would give users a lot of power.

Another option is to make all data available to users to be a token. Would require changing the UI. Would need to indicate what kind of token you want, for instance, otherwise it would be too many things being thrown at you all at once. Responsibility for describing available data could reside with module owners, which is how permissions work now.

NEXT STEPS: Darcy will create features which capture all desired new tokens as a short-term solution, and also features which capture the possible more adaptable/sustainable long-term solutions proposed at this meeting.
