*2016-10-18 RM Notes
Action items
Focus groups
The FOLIO Forum that Jacob presented about research methods generated a lot of comments and discussion
He would like a better way to collect more feedback on the topic
Jacob is planning to conduct two focus groups with up to 10 people each to further discuss research methods
He will work with the Facilitators group to plan and set a time frame for these sessions
Direction for RM group
We returned to the discussion about splitting into two groups: scholarly communications and business operations
For the business operations group, Filip Jakobsen would probably take over the leadership role from Jacob
Jacob would lead the scholarly communications group and help facilitate communication between the two
At least one functional expert will need to be present on both groups
RM f2f meeting
The in-person meeting of the RM group has been confirmed for Nov. 29-30 at MIT in Boston, MA.
The goal of the meeting will be to discuss concrete requirements for an RM (and ERM) solution
Confirmed attendees include:
Jacob Jaskov
Filip Jakobsen
Kim Maxwll
Kristen Martin
Kristen Wilson
Eric Hartnett
The group also agreed that the following people or roles would be beneficial to have present:
Marc Johnson
Someone from EBSCO
Someone from Index Data
We discussed topics stemming from Jacob's work that will need to be explored in a practical way
Potential topics include:
The role of a community knowledge base for metadata, catalog records, etc.
The role of EBSCO in supporting shared metadata
The role of GOKb in supporting or informing shared metadata
Other types of metadata we are interested in sharing
The results of Jacob's Charleston pre-conference
Functional matrix requirements
The requirements catalog produced by GBV and HBZ
How to better collect and make use of usage data
Jacob's visit to Texas A&M
Jacob is planning to visit Texas A&M the week of Nov. 7 to conduct interviews
He is aiming to talk with faculty, students, ERM librarians, and scholarly communications librarians
Jacob and Paula will coordinate the visit

In-person meeting
Filip will be joining RM group to help move from abstract to more concrete proposals. Want to take into account bigger picture and more concrete.
Who should be coming from Index Data? Marc Johnson from K-Int. Is Index Data ready to move forward?
Who from EBSCO should be here? - Jacob will reach out.
Current functional specialists to attend: Kim Maxwell, Eric Hartnett, Kristen Wilson, Kristin Martin
Kim will send hotel information
Jacob and Filip will put forward an agenda. To be discussed Oct. 28.
What of the big picture is relevant to us? What decisions do we need to make?
e.g., Community Zone in Alma - can we do something similar? can we do something more open? what are our assumptions?
How do we manage and include linked data within FOLIO?
Scan of products out there
1Science: search metadata to find Green/Gold OA articles
TIND: ERM and data model branched off from OLE work
GOKb: what worked and what are the challenges?
What types of data should we be managing beyond monographs, databases, and journals?
What kind of outcome does Index Data need to begin coding? - Filip can draw up concrete prototypes.
How can work done by German consortia help inform our discussion?
Kinds of issues: usage statistics support
In-person interviews with both researchers and librarians
Talk to Alma and OCLC Worldshare users
Talk to Mendeley and ReadCube users
Jacob sent list of interview questions. Bruce Herbert at TAMU will set up date for interviews. Looking at Nov. 7-11. Monday-Tuesday with researchers, Wednesday with Scholarly Communications, Thursday with RM.
Should Resource Management be split into two groups? Filip lead the concrete part. Jacob lead the bigger thoughts. Could Paula serve on both groups? Concrete steps need to be related to big picture issues.
New group at MIT reviewing different LMS/ILS/LSPs. FOLIO is one of several systems
