Charlotte, Christie, and Laura will be holding a forum on September 26 about Inventory. If anyone would like to participate, please let Laura know.
Another idea for a program is to hold a panel meeting for SIG conveners to share where the development is for each area so far. The group thought a quarterly meeting would be a good idea, especially if timed with the quarterly reviews. Laura will take these ideas back to the forum facilitators. It may not turn out to be a forum, but a sharing opportunity. This could be a "SIG Review."
Subgroup Updates
Analytics and Bound with - plan to reconvene the WG next week (to talk UX with Filip) - No updates.
Batch Loader - Ann-Marie reported that nine developers are coming on board to help build this functionality. The group is working on screens with Filip as well as the functionality.
MarcCat - Tiziana reported that it was decided to increase the meetings to two times a week, in order to help push the development. Laura offered to "give" MM meeting time to the MARCCat group.
Filip showed sketches on the notes fields for instances, holdings, and items, attempting to simplify the interface.
"Comments" are used for internal discussion.
Lynn: Public and Non-Public should be an options for all note types.
A final list of note type terms will be needed.
Filip - Should any of these trigger anything, or they just descriptive? Jason - At this point there is not an expectation of an action at this point. If so, that would be part of the workflow app.
Ann-Marie - Are these notes part of MARC Holdings, Instance Holdings, both?
If there is an underlying MARC Holding, the user would be sent to the editor app.
Jason raised the question about where and when records are editable.
Charlotte suggested taking this up as an agenda for a meeting about data flow. An update of the data flow diagram is being worked on.
Christie - Where will this be used? Only holdings and items? Christie suggested this is a good model for all notes in MARC Instance records, so dedicated UI space is not needed for each 5XX note. Will we have a separate meeting to discuss which fields belong in notes? How will this be decided.
Charlotte - The point of this meeting is to present the notes in a more compact format.
These notes are tied to MARC fields underneath. Ann-Marie wondered if it would make sense to have the MARC fields in parenthesis in the display.
Dennis - Need to keep in mind people who do not have MARC Holdings, but do need to generate them for exports. The shown list is purposefully exhaustive to accommodate this scenario.
To proceed, Charlotte will create a Discuss post and give a deadline, to give the group a chance to comment on the list of notes.
