Follow-up from conversations started last week about ERM and knowledge bases

• Discussion started at WOLFcon, may be time to revisit.

• They will be sure to follow up with the larger RM SIG to provide updates on that conversation.

• Owen also shared that there is a small group looking at all systems and services around FOLIO – dataflows, purposes, etc. The outcome of that work can be shared with the SIG as well.
