Prioritize inventory search scenarios and provide use cases:

JIRA	Priority	Inventory element	Use cases	Supported by ES?	Gaps

JIRA	Priority	Inventory element	Use cases	Supported by ES?	Gaps
UIIN-525	P2	Titles with thousand separator	Search for a title: "1,001 chemicals"	No	Search by "1, 001 chemicals" doesn't return data but "1001 chemicals" does
MODINVSTOR-475	P1	Instance - issn, Instance - invalid issn, Instance - linking issn, Instance - isxn	The user would not know if the printed ISBN/ISSN is a valid or an invalid number	ES does not support search on Invalid ISBN or Invalid ISSN.	This is expected to be supported.
MODINVSTOR-545	P3/P4	Instance - status
UIIN-112		Holdings - accession number Item - accession number	Follow up with German libraries

Notes:

Meeting times:

Meetings will be held biweekly on Mondays 9-10 am (CST) beginning June 14. An additional meeting may be held in the meantime and will be open to anyone who can attend. Details TBD

Notetaker:

Brian Clark will be notetaker for Inventory Search Improvement meetings.

JIRAs discussed:

UIIN-525 – P2

Punctuation/spacing can be problematic in numerical strings (i.e., 1,000, 1.000, 1 000).

MODINVSTOR-475 – P3/P4

Not a search option, but a filter

Locally configurable

Possible to get item status data through other means, i.e., reporting

UIIN-112

Libraries that utilize accession numbers will be consulted to determine level of priority.

Homework:

We did not get through all the JIRA tickets, so everyone in the group should rank each individually, adding to the wiki with their institutional symbol before our next meeting.
