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
