Announcements


From Kristin Martin via Slack:

The Product Council will be a holding a meeting on June 1, https://wiki.folio.org/display/PC/2023-06-01+Product+Council+Meeting+notes, at 9:30-11 AM ET. The meeting will be devoted to Data Import. We will have guests from EBSCO discussing how they are investigating and planning to address data import shortcomings. This conversation is an opportunity to gain a shared understanding across the project of the state of Data Import and understand how the problems will be addressed. It brings together excellent work already performed via the Data Import Group, ARLEF, Index Data, and others. There are some documents best read in advance, associated with the agenda. I have tried to include problem documents developed by the Data Import Group and Metadata Management SIG, but please let me know if there are some more I should highlight. Please share with anyone interested.

Diacritics/Special characters demos

FOLIO stores in Unicode and tires to transform everything into UNICODE. Data should be added in that standard, otherwise it can become corrupted.

Lynne Fors : I use the Microsoft Character map. Windows key > search for Character map

Character Map -> “Advanced view” checkbox offers additional useful tools like “Group by”.

Noto Sans Font set: https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Sans

Raegan Wiecherthttps://tools.oratory.com/altcodes.html This is the page I use for alt sequences. Note: alt sequences only work if entered on a keypad. They will not work with the number line at the top of a keyboard.

Felix Hemme : I use this list+search every time I need a complete list of Unicode characters: https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/search.htm

Proposal for MARC bib rec templates functionality
