Agenda:
High-level items raised from 4/8 overview of current authority control practice:
- Authority management workflows (current): Authority Management - current practice
- workflows:
- authority service (weekly with MARCive for Duke) versus local effort
- new records (auth and bib) in Connexion
- MARCEdit for adding URIs to records
- review unmatched headings to then match
- embedding URI data to help disambiguate
- unicode compliance for things not in unicode
- shared authority file (ALMA for Penn)
- OCLC WorldShare profile and other query processes with import job
- Chicago has a fellow computationally comparing headings in Chicago bib records to OCLC
- preference for OCLC records over vendor records - though this is nuanced (preference is more around vendor-neutral records for eResources)
- Tooling:
- ILS
- external scripts
- access database (used for Duke process)
- LSTools (local at Cornell, https://confluence.cornell.edu/display/tsawg/Library+Services+Tools) → workflows for maintaining headings do not change authority records; create reports and act on bib records with those authorities. Depending on what is seen in global headings queue in Voyager, will feel more of less comfortable with auto-flips (flip example: name heading where death date was not originally in our data). Workflow engines being considered as among part of the solution for rebuilding for FOLIO. UXPROD-950 - Rewrite Cornell’s Web based LS-Tools
- Incorporate notes from the work areas discussion meetings. Wayne will kick off this discussion (Wayne, Jason)
- Spreadsheet to organize use cases being brainstormed into various areas of work "Use Cases/Areas of Work": https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1h2qJrlPIGKKIF9GGzfgtNwgRQw7AhmAD4G23ZTCHDzg/edit?usp=sharing
- feedback request: is this what people imagined that we would do with this document?
- out of this should derive features to discuss with UI and technical design teams
