https://librarytechnology.org/perceptions/2022/invite/ from Charlotte
We want to cover start of semester, end of semester, data issues, ongoing maintenance...
Some questions from Ian:
- What is the workflow like at the beginning of the semester (when presumably the volume of reserves requests is highest)? How tedious/ergonomic is it? Has anyone made tools to help alleviate any pain points with working with large numbers of reserves?
- What differences are there in the workflow for professors' personal copies or other materials the library manages, but that are not part of the collection?
- How are students discovering course reserves? Is it integrated into your discovery layer, or through a separate interface?
- Are electronic reserves being handled in FOLIO, or in another system like Ares? If there are two systems, are they being presented to students as separate or merged interfaces?
- What kind of statistics do you need about course reserves usage, and how are you getting them?
- What sort of clean-up is done on previous semesters' data? Do old reserve records stick around forever, or are they pruned after X semesters? What about terms?
- If you could change 3 things about the course reserves app with the wave of a magic wand, what would they be?
