Discussion items
Time | Item | Who | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Boundwiths and analyzed sets | Darsi asking | Model: parent has instance-holdings-item. Child has instance-holdings. Child holding links to child item in boundwiths table. UChicago didn’t migrate boundwiths because previous functionality in previous ILS didn’t work how they wanted, so they are leaving this as a project to do. (Christie Thomas or David Botorff might know better). Ian: each child holdings record would have “real” location and call number (so, of the parent record). Bywater hasn’t implemented boundwiths too much for their partners yet | |
Migration status reports | Darsi/Stanford | Does effort of migrating fees/fines worth it? Meaning, is the amount of money you might get from them worth it? Stanford circ folks want to preserve replacement book fees, and to know which current users have lots of fines (if they’re blocked now they should keep that record) UChicago: Cheryl Malmborg and David B good to talk to about notices During migration, did you email users their overdue/bills as you migrated? No for both UChicago and Bywater migrations. Turned email on after migration. UChicago turned on a few email accounts so could see what emails went out after migration. | |
Ingolf | They are not migrating any circ data. | ||
Reuse of migration tools once live | Cornell using Prefect (Jenn Colt) for some of their workflow automation. UChicago investigation that, and also Airflow, as possible automation for cataloging (loading bibs). What would be involved in turning them into production services. Ian: “Cerulean" workflow engine for migration (constellation of tools), keeping it for post-go-live, has been very helpful. Uses for data processing: bulk editing, nightly patron imports. Reporting interface let’s them do the read part of identifying records to change, his tools do the write/update part. ARLEF discussion on Automation and Data Import will happen on Friday Nov 18 12:30pm Eastern, Jenn of Cornell leading | ||
