This app will track changes that anyone makes to the data, and give a space to explain why a change was made. Filip will work with Batch Import group.

The Change Tracker App will work automatically.

The concept of an "undo" or rollback in the change tracker will be welcome.

Item UX/UI

Presentation of the latest update of the item record

Kimie demonstrated the changes to the item record based on meetings with group members.

Feedback: Concern about holdings level notes living on item level. It might be useful to view holdings notes at the item level, however clarity is needed. We also need a place public and non-public notes in the item record for a note that is not inherited - a note that only applies to the item level. Example: "Signed by offer" - this is a characteristic of a particular item.

We need a specific note that applies to items, that are not inherited from holdings. We need a Public Item Note and a Non Public Item Note.

Filip will post a discuss forum to present the various terms for "notes" (i.e. notes, comments, action notes, etc.) and the need for standard terms used across FOLIO.

Kimie changed the interface to clarify. She added an "Action note" to the item notes.

The presence of note types be configurable. A custom fields discussion/demo is available on the Discuss Forum by Stephanie.

Filip will present wireframe options for display of filters, with categorized terms, e.g. Resource type, Format, Material type, and subject headings

Three options:

Option A: (Accompanying) Video cassette, accompanying

Option B: Video cassette, accompanying (Accompanying)

Option C:

2. Holdings & Item data: will it live in both Inventory storage and MARCcat or just Inventory?

• V1 = Inventory only

• Post-v1 = perhaps be able to edit/synchronize via MARCcat as well; this does not need to be decided yet

Outstanding question

• Need to figure out whether MARC Holdings Storage work (now marked as v1?) can be confirmed for v1

• Do any of the early adopters need MARC Holdings storage? (CW: followed up with Chalmers - and they do not want to continue with MARC holdings)

• We will ensure all elements of MARC holdings are retained in FOLIO holdings

• If libraries need to exchange holdings info with other libraries in MARC holdings format, then we would need a way to convert FOLIO holdings into MARC upon export
