Notes
Today: View and offer feedback on the latest version of the FOLIO interface Filip
Announcement:
Mark Canney:
Resource Access invited to present in September at Community Forum; webinar
Tentative: September 27; 11 am (eastern)
Demo of interface as it stands now (Filip)
Trying to create something that looks/feels like the final system will, but w/out real data
Shows all the prototype apps; in real system, would show only those you have access to
Q. Generic login?
A. Not sure we have made a decision
Suggestion: Small group to work with User Mgmt. to determine individual vs. generic login - can we make this an action item and suggest 2-3 people?
Filip:
Showed direct link to each app
Demonstrated language option
Showed walk-through (video) for each app
Commenting option: FOLIO project at discuss.folio.org
Showcase all the prototypes of apps
List of prototypes/demos is searchable
Also showed walkthrough of FOLIO set-up for new users
Q. Command line searching/filtering?
A. No prototype yet; found example in loan rules
Q. Fielded search within patron database?
A. Not yet, but coming up;
Q. Columns in interface; can the width be adjusted?
A. Yes; there is a logic in the way the panes behave: responsive & adaptive; panes: hide/show & change size
Q/comment: concern about screens looking different for different users in different circumstances makes training very difficult
A. I hear you;
A. Variation only comes with different screen sizes;
A. If you are on similar devices, screens will be roughly the same; logic & structure will remain the same without regard to screen type/size;
Thirty-three videos are available to view
Q. Smaller devices—ability to scan (a barcode) if device doesn’t support a scanner?
A. It would be possible to build a plug-in;
A. There are barcode scanners that will link to phones, etc. w/ Bluetooth
RE: App development by outside entities
A. This would be technically challenging because of the devices
Assignment: look at videos of prototypes
Videos: some are less than a minute; most just a few minutes; one is thirty minutes
