From Jana Freytag: I wanted to bring the CDL-Subgroup to your attention again. We are a subgroup of the RA SIG and are looking for input by MM folks on Controlled Digital lending processes in FOLIO. We have a new and hopefully better fitting meeting slot (Tuesdays 12 - 1 pm EST). We have the slack channel #cdl-subgroup and agendas here: https://wiki.folio.org/display/RA/2022-11-08+CDL+Sub-group+Meeting+Notes


November 24 meeting will be cancelled because of Thanksgiving in the U.S.

Inventory UX

Discuss simple vs advanced search

Simple Search

Search on Locations - tricky because locations are hierarchical structure

Decision: add ability to search on null value in simple search interface

Need to be able to do an exact title search e.g. "starts with" / left-anchored

Need to be able to filter on an exact title search

Tradeoffs - if we add browse capability then we lose filters

Could we add way to search for invalid UTF-8 filters

Question: what is the best way to display results? Maybe be more a question of how to display results (rather than what's returned)

Include numbers / identifiers in simple search?

How will authority records be handled? How will we know which LCCN we are searching against?

  • Right now MARC Authority goes against MARC authority app - need examples of different types of prefixes and different types of normalization


Advanced search

  • Should include all simple search options plus additional items
  • Suggestion: have a dropdown for each of the 3 record types and then a second dropdown for the element we are looking for (e.g. permanent location in holdings, material type in item, and statistical code in Instance)
  • Idea - save query then combine with filters
  • Need ability to search by Note types
  • Need ability to save and share queries
    • If there is a query manager, need a way to track last time used, share notes on it etc to prevent clutter in large orgs
    • This would be a new app
      • As an intermediary step you could download a query from the query manager and load into an app to run query or edit it
    • Need fuzzy and near searching
    • Question: how does elastic search handle "And" from "Romeo and Juliet"
    • Wildcards
      • exists in simple search
      • have a ticket in to mask characters in advanced search (not yet implemented)
      • Should also be able to use wildcard in advanced search
      • Is there a way to escape the asterisk in search? Some collection names have asterisks.
