10min	Consortia Implementation Model subgroup updates recap of last week's discussion	Steve/All	recap not all FOLIO functions (RM/Acq) are subject to location hierarchy at this point; proposed solution is multi-tenancy meeting scheduled for this Friday (6/22) from 11-noon EST; Anya will give a presentation; meeting will be recorded
35min	Title/item-level requests discussion - what does your consortium do? Discuss post: https://discuss.folio.org/t/how-does-your-library-manage-requests-item-level-requests-versus-title-level-requests/1860/17	All	Martina: title-level requests at the library level - queue of requests distributed across all items consortial level: use ILL, not really an ILS title/item request Peter: both item and title level are available Steve B.: title-level requests; works well in most cases, especially for popular titles item-level requests can be done with staff intervention Noah: title-level requests; working well; one issue with multi-volume requests shows up on all libraries request lists; real-time list, which avoids multiple items being sent staff can do item-level requests Chris: title-level requests - only places request against items available to be circulated to that patron/library (i.e. wouldn't include non-circulating items) needs to distinguish policies for local patrons vs. consortial patrons Noah: is the system aware of item availability? Steve B.: Paging requests → first level of priority should be for items available at the home library choice of pickup location FOLIO: ability to specify service point for pickup location home library? not entirely necessary for pickup locations; it's better to allow an individual to specify their preferred pickup location (maybe with a home library as a default) probably need some notion of this scenario: many libraries have local delivery rules - e.g. departmental delivery, delivery to satellite locations, etc. (with various degrees of documentation) - that are not managed/facilitated by the ILS; it would be nice to see FOLIO support these local routing rules
10min	Wrap-up/planning	All	Next week either recap/further discussion of subgroup presentation and discussion OR another topical discussion
