WolfCon update: inventory/MARC authority prioritization

See summary & original presentation: Search & browse prioritization session

Series browse

@Christine Schultz-Richert

Main task: Talk about the way we navigate between series and instances

Previous MM SIG session on series browse. Gathered use cases during last session, but would like better understanding of real world process flow. Miro board and discussion.

• e.g. Consistency in cataloging

  • what does this look like for a cataloger?

  • Series in hand, then what?…

  • No feedback in meeting. Christine will attempt and then bring back to group for review.

• Search series vs. Browse series

  • Use browse when want to see a list of series instead of list of titles within series

    • browse useful to look at a list of series with similar titles

  • Search - looking for instances within series

  • Need to consider subseries

    • example of a series subseries - Revue des lettres modernes

    • Lynne: would expect main series to show first and the subseries under alpha order (hierarchical display)

  • Julie: If you already know the series title and you want to see bib records/instances as Felix said, then search is more useful

  • Lynne: I would start with browse for these, to see if they are cataloged separately (under their own title level call number) or under the series call number appended with volume numbers

  • Ryan: Another use case for browse is to check for consistency in the series titles.

    • e.g. authorized access point is being used

  • Julie: With browse, would we also want to consider any differences with browsing series access points that begin with a corporate or personal name, as well as those that are simply a title string

  • Dealing with instance data and no subfields (e.g. all subfields in one string) so how to know where to split things at the correct points?

    • maybe the instance data/mapping could change to accommodate the subfields?

  • Need to consider 830 vs 490 and institutional mapping differences

  • Browse often more useful for data cleanup because will see the list rather than a search that might not retrieve records with data errors

2024-10-10 Product Council Agenda and Meeting Notes

Announcements: LoC is on track. Expect to be working in production next week on Order-based Acquisitions. Full roll out of FOLIO will be June 2, 2025.

Proposed plan:

Wrap up the work in the Prioritization and Road map working group. Transition steps: Evaluate/review if the prioritisation process can follow the Acquisition SIG's way to prioritize new work. Data Import planning is following the Acquisition model. Future road map work belongs in the respective SIG.

The PC will loop in the SIG conveners, SIG Liaisons, and the Product Owners and/or Scrum Masters in a joint meeting as kick off (maybe early November), and then continued conversations in the SIGs. Jesse will partipate together with the SIG liaisons in the SIG meetings. Important that there is alignment. A combination of straw man and conversation. Caitlin underlined that this should feed into the release planning - next flower release to do this planning towards the Trillium (R2 2025) release. Jennifer Eustis suggested that for the SIG priorities this could be part of the SIG reports once or twice a year.

Set up Google Calendar function for the PC. Using the OLF Google calendar structure. To be further discussed at the OLF Officers meeting.

Self Evaluation Checklist / Actions document - Review of any proposed new apps. Review early, and in code time before the Technical Council review process.

Work already in progress that needs completion: PC Working Group on Better Sample Data.

Anything the MM-SIG want me to bring back to the PC?
