Laura has agreed to join the Documentation Working Group. The current version of docs.folio.org is documenting Honeysuckle. But in the beginning of the year, then the Documentation WG expects to start documenting Iris.

The Sinopia record is the source of truth record. The MARC layer is skipped, which reduces the risk of losing data in the transformation from BibFrame to the FOLIO format (Instance).

Jenn Colt asked about the use of Instance HRID. Jeremy explained the thinking behind the current use. Christie Thomas and Jacquie Samples agreed, indicating that these URIs should be mapped as another identifier type instead.  Leaving these data as HRID will make it difficult to integrate with other systems that expect FOLIO conventions for the HRID.

Jeremy Nelson did a demo of the Sinopia tool (stage.sinopia.io/dashboard)

Sinopia is open to any users. The middleware to integrate Sinopia with an ILS is being used by Stanford (for Symphony) and University of Pennsylvania is experimenting with an Alma integration. For the proof-of-concept integration with FOLIO (Sinolio), the users are Stanford and Cornell. The integration is designed so that other institutions could set up something similar.

Eminent need to support do browse search of Call number and Subject.

The Falcon team who works on the back end work for mod-search (Elasticsearch) has also done some initial work which will support browse search.

Cornell has raised an enhancement request in for the effective shelving order to be added to holdings records also. Following JIRA tickets has been filed: 
Back-end work: MODINVSTOR-274 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Front-end work: UIIN-415 - Getting issue details... STATUS

The browse screen do not have sort able column heading. Khalilah Gambrell will talk with the UX designer to have this indicated more clear.
