Update on Innovation Grants

Presenter: @Andrew Nagy

• Nothing to show in April so moving this to late summer.

Review Idea Bank

• Presentations could start to look at deployment, particularly in a hosted, non-hosted environment

• Work to prep for migrations to FOLIO. Get implementation managers on a panel.

• Reach out to convener of Implementation SIG (late Spring?)

• How FOLIO is impacting libraries now: view from Cornell – wait to reach out until we have better sense of implementation timelines; How are they viewing FOLIO from a strategic perspective

• What is the international perspective on FOLIO? Can we get a panel of international sites (Australia, GVB) to give their perspectives? Plus, international update

• Host a Forum in the Spanish language with roadmap discussion and demo, could be hosted by Lydia @ EBSCO, include UNAM development team

• April/May timeline, before beta implementation in June/July: have a beta site talk about their interest in FOLIO (how and why as a strategy); what are some of the mechanics of the site doing the implementation

• Podcasting as a possibility to get developers to answer questions about the process, EBSCO has people who be able to edit

• Panel of PO/SIG facilitator/developer together to discuss the full life cycle, moderated by product owner

• Topic for Fall? How libraries are viewing themselves as support cohorts. How is OLE supporting early adopters - panel of deans.

Conference News?

Meetup at Drew University on 2/6/2018. One institution (Goldey-Beacom College) is likely to commit to FOLIO. One person at Drew University would like to contribute 20% of his time to coding.
