Follow-up on last week's data import discussion (UXPROD-1419)

• what use cases exist for cross-tenant use given the scope of data for Data Import app? 

All 

 Any use cases for data import across tenants?

• bib records for ebooks; might not be an issue if this can be handled through ERM functionality

• no scenarios for order/invoice loads across multiple tenants

What other use cases exist (regardless of Data Import feature scope)?

• Vendor data - possibly just a one-time activity on system implementation/migration (UXPROD-817 - remove orders/invoices reference)

• License information

• Circulation policies (reciprocal borrowing agreements) - possibly just a one-time load but might be a need to do this iteratively for new libraries or for changes in policies

• Fund/budget structure -

• Central fund management for EBA/DDA collections?

  • keeping track of institutions that are incurring fees; tracking which libraries are using it the most

  may be part of UXPROD-823 (earmark for future discussion)

• E-resources data - ERM data for resources provided by consortia or state-level groups; might be more of a global configuration change (this might apply to a lot of these use cases)

  • there might be some opportunities to utilize GoKB for some of these group-negotiated e-resource packages

• Users - loading users of other libraries in a consortium (ideally, though, this data would be shared across tenants rather than loaded into each tenant)

UXPROD-795 - overlap with functionality anticipated in ReShare

All

Group-level resource sharing/circulation

• what does this entail?

  • fits somewhere between ILL and walk-in consortial borrowers

  • patrons can place holds on items at the consortial level

    • request goes directly to owning institution

    • item gets checked out at patron's home library

    • should result in quicker delivery

    • more generous loan durations

    • patrons can choose to pick up libraries at any member library

• this sounds like it is exactly the goal of the ReShare MVP
