2017-10-20 Meeting notes

 Discuss Posts you might want to see:

• Order record
• Ebook Packages - Relation to Individual Records
• Acquisitions Reports wanted

New version of RoadMap available. It now lists a product owner and designer for each feature (though these aren't set in stone).

@cult - new company interested in developing a cataloging app/MARC editor. They are currently working on a BibFrame project with Cassalini. Metadata Management got a demo of some of their work. The meeting was recorded and Charlotte will send out a link to it.

Workflow is currently not on the roadmap but work will continue on it.

FOLIO Days in Germany was a success.

Kristin is going with a small group to the Library of Congress to discuss FOLIO with them.

Acquisitions Subgroup

Newest version of Orders has not been uploaded to the prototype yet - they would like feedback first. They plan to upload it today.

There's a new summary section at top and some of the fields have been reordered. Some fields will have a help icon to get more details about the field.

Reporting codes - how are they used? Tracking journals in packages. Tracking funds for subject/formats. Overall, they don't seem to be that important. It's good to have the field for flexibility. The preference would be to find a better way to produce the same information. There is a need to have a controlled vocabulary - could this be in the admin? "Is this a controlled field or not?" As you start typing it autofills; if not in the system, you're prompted to add.

E-resource details - should some of these be entered here or should they be pulled from another source such as the knowledgebase?

There are still a lot of questions about the status of eresource management. Who's working on it? Is it a priority? If we start populating the fields now and and ERM is built later, what happens to the data? Are we just creating a complicated workaround? Kristin will take it to the Product Council.
