Reporting SIG meeting - report on approach to reporting in FOLIO

Consort SIG can expect to be asked about what elements are needed for reporting; we should talk about this more at a future meeting

45min

Needs matrix

Reviewed the categories in the Google Doc

Finance changed to "Financial Agent" - some consortia offer deposit accounts for their members (doesn't seem prevalent among those represented in today's discussion though); it's not readily apparent what functionality would exist within FOLIO to support this service, but it doesn't hurt to keep it as a placeholder
Resource Management changed to "Shared Workflows"
- two scenarios at PALNI right now
  - coordination between member libraries to provide some technical services (cataloging) on behalf of another member library
  - consortial support for KB management
- this category could include things other than coordination around management of resources
Consortial Administration
- still some ambiguity around what this category represents
- thoughts on this
  - represents the overhead for any type of consortial relationship → what types of things need to be done regardless of the specific services/value that consortia provide?
  - Consortial adminstration is not necessarily equivalent to tasks that a consortial administrator might do
