Goals for 2021


  • Prove the design of using external data sources (outside FOLIO data) in the Library Reporting Database
  • User acceptance testing: are we meeting the requirements that we hoped we would?
  • Develop support for using MARC data in FOLIO reporting
  • Develop a FOLIO Reporting Vision and Strategy
  • Develop support structure for those using queries
  • Understand our needs for normalizing, denormalizing, summarizing, aggregating, anonymizing data
  • Expand outreach by sharing experiences of report development groups more broadly and getting feedback from other groups in the FOLIO community
  • Maintain, support, and distribute robust repository of shared queries
  • Write shared documentation on the queries, connecting reporting tools to Library Reporting Database
  • Write shared documentation on the Library Reporting Database implementation, maintenance and schema (e.g., data dictionary)
  • Reach out to FOLIO implementers and respond to their reporting problems and needs
  • Extend collaborative model of report development groups to a larger scale, focusing on those who will actually be using the queries
