45min | ReShare review and implications for FOLIO cross-tenant resource sharing | All | ReShare and Central Office reqs - reqs #1 and #2 are main areas where ReShare could be helpful
- ReShare will have a "Consortia" app
- profile view and management features (e.g. member libraries, policies, etc.)
- routing configuration - tiered/grouped ranking for request routing; specification of lend-to-borrow ratio
- can perform some tenant management on behalf of library (e.g. suspend loaning due to emergency, etc.)
- questions?
- how would ReShare be hosted and relationship to tenants? ReShare hosted by vendor/consortium
- merging of FOLIO LSP and ReShare apps for a FOLIO consortium? Seems possible
- ReShare Directory
- every library has a profile within the Directory (e.g. consortial memberships, contacts for billing, etc.)
- #3 - working a bit with bibliographic data to harvest records from member libraries; planning to provide a discovery interface
- Q: integration of reshare requests with patrons account info (i.e. status of request, etc.)? A: could be done through APIs
- Q: where are loan policies maintained? A: really two loan policies - (1) consortial loan policy, (2) local loan policy that may shorten consortially-set loan period; initially only items that libraries want to share should be added to the shared index
