The MARC Data Use Case small group from the Reporting SIG will document use cases for reports that use MARC data. This work will support the development of the MARC data reporting feature for the Library Data Platform. 

From Jennifer:

Here's the spreadsheet from our mm reports wg. I also added a link to Cornell use cases in the 2nd tab, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QjYa7zy77Ctiys-5MPj70EWqMluSAOnE3b66UH5pnFY/edit#gid=596439461

What are some common use cases we can think of right now?

Important to be comprehensive

• this feature will define the limits of what can be done

-MM reports group has several examples

Who can volunteer to participate in this workgroup?

Small Group Meeting Time:
