2018-05-23 Forum Facilitators Meeting notes

May 23th: GOKb Update

Host: @Michael Winkler

Presenter: Jahann Rolschewski, SVBSBK

45 people on the call; 7 questions.

Should these types of forums be hosted by OLF rather than as a FOLIO forum? Could have had more context provided for the tie-in to FOLIO.

Planning for possible WOLFCon meeting in 6 months?

Possible June Forums: WOLFCon Debrief:

• 3 themes/ideas/takeaways/highlights from WOLFCon

• Deeper dive into some of the demos

TBD: Metadata Management Update

Metadata is asking to postpone. They are taking a description of what Inventory is and what it isn't to Product Council. Want to make sure they have a shared definition before presenting to others.

July 11: Panel Discussion of Early Implementers/Adopters Partners

ALA Annual: June 22-25

• We will recruit presenters at WOLFcon

• Discuss reasons for planning to implement early

• Plans for implementation

July: Roadmap Update

Break this up into two? One focusing on development work and the other focusing on the work of the SIGs.

August: Update on Innovation Grants

Host: @Mark Canney

Presenter: @Andrew Nagy

• @Andrew Nagy to present at WOLFCON about grant. Villanova, Illinois.

September: Panel Discussion of Vendor Partners

Review Idea Bank

• MARCCat as a new topic?

• 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.
