2017-08-16 - Consortia SIG Notes

RA v1 requirements

• https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15eO29vY2qp-FeUaoA292J-KwDy4c9z8dg-Pfp2fDymw/edit?usp=sharing

circ stats logging

• must be able to identify institution/library
• track transits between libraries
• need to record institutional affiliation in transaction data

loan/return/renew

• is there an assumption that the owning library can see other patrons?
  • no, not assumed in requirements
• is there a standard between systems to use? probably NCIP
• user should be able to see checkouts from all affiliations via a signle interface
• borrowing relationship should be between patron and library
• resource sharing should be system agnostic (i.e. libraries should be able to borrow between different systems)
• NCIP probably falls short in mapping loan rules for consortial relationships
  • does owning library need to see loan rules? probably not
  • do libraries in consortia need to agree on patron classes
  • OCLC uses 008 field to indicate if owning library will lend
