  • recap of last week's discussion
Steve/All 
  • recap
    • not all FOLIO functions (RM/Acq) are subject to location hierarchy at this point; proposed solution is multi-tenancy
  • meeting scheduled for this Friday (6/22) from 11-noon EST; Anya will give a presentation; meeting will be recorded
35min

Title/item-level requests discussion - what does your consortium do?

All
  • Martina: title-level requests at the library level - queue of requests distributed across all items
    • consortial level: use ILL, not really an ILS title/item request
  • Peter: both item and title level are available
  • Steve B.: title-level requests; works well in most cases, especially for popular titles
    • item-level requests can be done with staff intervention
  • Noah: title-level requests; working well; one issue with multi-volume requests
    • shows up on all libraries request lists; real-time list, which avoids multiple items being sent
    • staff can do item-level requests
  • Chris: title-level requests - only places request against items available to be circulated to that patron/library (i.e. wouldn't include non-circulating items)
    • needs to distinguish policies for local patrons vs. consortial patrons
  • Noah: is the system aware of item availability?
  • Steve B.: Paging requests → first level of priority should be for items available at the home library
  • choice of pickup location
    • FOLIO: ability to specify service point for pickup location
    • home library?
      • not entirely necessary for pickup locations; it's better to allow an individual to specify their preferred pickup location (maybe with a home library as a default)
      • probably need some notion of this
      • scenario: many libraries have local delivery rules - e.g. departmental delivery, delivery to satellite locations, etc. (with various degrees of documentation) - that are not managed/facilitated by the ILS; it would be nice to see FOLIO support these local routing rules
