Information and question from Marc Johnson in Slack:

A long time ago (in the early days of FOLIO), two experimental features were added to mod-inventory:
very minimal Dublin Core links
a MODS based import
These were built with the intention of demonstrating some of the ways FOLIO could approach ideas like linked data and importing. These significantly predate the work done on data import and source records.
As far as I am aware, neither of which have been used beyond the MODS ingest being used to populate sample records in the hosted reference environments at one point.
Given there have already been changes to mod-inventory which break compatibility in Nolana, and this is code that is mostly only a burden at this stage, I intend to remove them. I want to check with the community if that will impact them before I do.
Would folks be affected by the removal of these two features?

Please get in touch with Marc ASAP if your institution relies on these features.

Charlotte: we have not even begun to support other formats (other than MARC) –but this has always been the intention. Why not keep these features?

Jenn (chat): it sounds like a maintenance issue

Christie (chat): are they even usable in their current form?

Jacquie: sounds like these would not even work anyway?

Action: Charlotte will reach out to Marc: are they usable at all in current form?

MM SIG Release Note & Other Highlights

Of note: Bug in current LDP MARC 1.5 – temporary fix was applied in 1.51

  • the temporary fix is stable and fixes everything (for those who haven't updated yet)

Need volunteers to help test/verify 2 bugs:

  1. MSEARCH-430 Inventory Elastic Search (Morning Glory). Keyword search on identifiers throw unexpected results when the search only contains numbers and dashes
  2. MSEARCH-432 Inventory search on Title (all) return too many results, and does not honor the double quotes

(Felix, Jacquie, Jennifer E., and Laura volunteered – Charlotte will set up a Slack channel and possibly meeting time)

Entity Management in FOLIO

WOLFcon session summary https://wolfcon2022.sched.com/event/14APp/entity-management-in-folio-next-steps

Vision statement from working group

Next steps

1) Refining vision, how to leverage current work around MARC authorities in FOLIO

2) What are resource implications for creation of functionality around entity management?

Summary of WolfCon discussion:

Khalilah outlined current development

Tiziana shared info about Share VDE

Proof of concept developed around Sinopia-FOLIO integration

Questioning authorities tool

There is a lot of broad interest in this within the community; what are the practicalities of getting work done toward this now that there are more live libraries and unmet needs

Where should a working group start?

Request: Form New Entity Management Working Group

– not necessarily same group as before, should be cross-section of the community

Entity Management Epic in JIRA: ROAD-124 - Getting issue details... STATUS
The features under this epic need refinement

Charlotte suggests starting with an environmental scan: what has happened in the project since the last working group ended.

We also need: a convener, a PO, development resources

Jason offered to convene. Lots of plus ones to this. Thank you, Jason!

Felix offered every other week's MM time for this group to meet.

Christie: suggests forming subgroups to investigate different approaches from a practical perspective

Steven: supports idea of concurrent work, including polling community to prioritize first steps

Charlotte: ARLEF might be interested in entity management?

Jason: what does membership look like?

Jenn: open broader discussions to help identify/self-select subgroups would be helpful

Christie: these conversations might need to be broader than MM SIG

Nancy: how do we make sure subgroup work meshes well together? needs to be some central organization; +1 from Jacquie

Jason acknowledged this concern

October 6 MM meeting time will be devoted to the first Entity Management Working Group discussion

Jason will send out calls for participation across FOLIO community

Christie: interested in helping structure the conversation so that we can come out with priorities

Anyone else who would like to help form the agenda, contact Jason in Slack – will organize planning meeting before Oct 6

Search: HRID and UUID for keyword search?Charlotte Whitt 
  • Current situation: HRID and UUID of all 3 entities (Instance, Holdings, Item) are not included in the default keyword search index. A user has to select Instance/Holdings/Item HRID/UUID from the index dropdown list in order to search for them.
  • Does the current implementation reflect user expectations?
