Upcoming conferences:

Charleston session format and threads: https://www.charleston-hub.com/the-charleston-conference/session-formats/

    • Boaz Nadav Manes has submitted a preconference proposal to Charleston on OSS. It's a workshop. This isn't a FOLIO preso though.
    • UKSG - Ian Ibbotson (Use this one) can help us think about how to approach UK institutions for onboarding as well as grant funding. A personal contact will go farther than a letter for this audience.
Quarterly Community MeetingMike

Planning for this meeting to happen Q3 - July/August/September. No details yet.

Mike will survey people to determine a time.

 OnboardingMike

Onboarding Videos of CC topics - session scheduled for 6/30/2021

Idea from previous meeting - set up a SIG or other type of group to support new FOLIO community members. Help to network and share information. Action item for someone? Mike to join Community Outreach SIG meeting June 25th and discuss this topic with that group, bring discussion/ideas back to CC.

Mike will discuss with the community outreach SIG

Treasurer UpdatePaula

Receiving payments from member organizations, both annual fees and one-time help.  See "Income" in Treasurer folder.

Most payments require me to register FOLIO as a vendor on their system.  Since we share the Tax ID with OLF, some payments are defaulting to the OLF account and the OLF Treasurer will transfer.

I will work on untangling those vendor registration as I have time - priority will be to set up new registrations.

I will get a working budget up by the end of the month.

May not be able to completely untangle OLF & FOLIO finances by July 1 as hoped, but we'll be close.

Paula:  We have some funding.  57k in the bank.  No spending any of it until July.  Bottom line looking better.

ElectionsMike/Harry

Underway - voting to end June 25th. 314 Votes cast so far.

Question on FOLIO sponsored individuals running for election

Todo: We must revise governance and discuss the situation.  Next week.

Updates from Fund-seeking SubGroupsTeams

Grant Seeking subgroup (Tom, Mike, Ian, Leander) - no progress ( ? )

Grow the membership (Harry, Boaz, Simeon, Marko)- now meeting bi-weekly. Discussing the target audience (first one - libraries running FOLIO who aren't yet active in the community, or institutions that contributed to the pointing exercise for Kiwi). Discussing "what the message is"... This week to review prior messages/calls for participation for inspiration for upcoming messages. Progress?

Update: There seems to be a split between libraries that rely on IT and libraries that don't.  We need to do more to support libraries that rely on IT to enable them to contribute to FOLIO.

Appeal to current Members (Paula, Dracine, Kirstin, Mike) - Summary provided by Paula

Review Strategic Goals and ObjectivesTeam
