30 | Consortial Ticket Review
| Dennis | Ticket review: https://folio-org.atlassian.net/issues/?filter=13150 Do we need the Consortia label for some of these? If any question, leave it on and decide later. Added a new label |
10 | FOLIO ECS Update from Oct 2 (continued) | Dennis | Dennis continued reviewing the FOLIO ECS Update slide deck from October 2024 which includes: What does it do today? What will it do tomorrow? Why is this exciting for FOLIO? Today, ECS offers a single point of entry with multiple institutional affiliations; centralized admin tools; central, shared, and local data; and core OAI-PMH capabilities for both central and local tenants. Ramsons will offer consortium-level management of roles and policies; a new action that allows users to ‘Update ownership’ for Items & Holdings across affiliations; the ability for FOLIO-only ECS environments to circulate, loan, and request materials at both title and item levels across multiple tenants; mediated requesting; bulk editing in the central tenant; central tenant ability to export records based on custom profiles from affiliated member tenants; options for central tenant acquisitions (ordering and receiving); and the ability for central tenant administrators to export data from all underlying tenants and create central lists. See complete slide deck at the link above. |
15 | Outstanding Issues/Announcements/Quick topics
| All | Okapi version of bugfest testing is complete. Eureka version of Ramsons is close to complete. Challenging bugfest since there were essentially 4 different bugfests at the same time: ECS-disabled; ECS-enabled; and Eureka and Okapi versions of both. Second pass-through is essentially complete. Not a lot of bugs reported; those that were found were mostly within Eureka. Current GA date for Ramsons is February 3, which appears to be a realistic date. The “what is a bug” discussion will wait until next time. There were no other updates. |
