Data Migration Subgroup Home

The SysOps & Management SIG creates a Data Migration Subgroup. The subgroup will be open for participants from other SIGs.

The members of this subgroup are the people who :

  • will be doing data migration at their institution
  • are in charge of data migration in their functional area (can be a different SIG, a library department etc.)
  • are experts in data migration or interested in

Charge of the Data Migration Subgroup

Areas of concern:

  • Adequacy and best practices for data migration
  • Migration of data from various currently used Integrated Library Systems (taken from SIG charge)
  • acceptable data formats, record types people want to migrate, record layout for a migration record, data formats that the APIs accept
  • define where migration is possible and where it is necessary to start over
  • test pefomance of the APIs

Deliverables:

  • Documentation for migration
  • Data migration plan, working with various SIGs for SME input. (from SIG charge)
  • Specifications for migration tools that have not already been identified for development. (from SIG charge)
  • Requirements and priorities for module / API creation; set deadlines for readiness of module APIs; find gaps in what the APIs can accomodate and determine what needs to be filled

Communication
