Data Import SIG
About Us
The Data Import (originally called Batch Loader) Special Interest Group works with Product Owners, developers, and subject matters experts to outline functional requirements for the FOLIO Data Import application. Overall scope is still to be finalized, but will include importing of MARC records to create or update instance, holdings, and item records in Inventory, as well as corresponding records in MARCcat. The Data Import app is especially important to Metadata Management SIG, App Interaction SIG, Acquisitions SIG, and Resources Management SIG.
