2017-10-05 Metadata Management Meeting Notes

Inventory UX demo

Postponed until 10/12 - Filip will be on vacation

• folioproject.proto.io and on the discuss channel https://discuss.folio.org/t/instances-ux-iteration-3-english/1271
  Discussion/Review of questions Filip posed on the discuss channel. Thanks to everyone who has responded to date!
• Questions:
  
  1. Can holdings records be optional?
  2. If there are cases with no holding records - what situations could that be?
  3. Would you create a new holding record if different locations?
  4. Would you create a holding record if there is only one item?
  5. How often do you edit holdings records?
  6. Should we display holdings records together with the item data?
  7. How would you relink to different holdings records, if e.g. an item record is moved from on holdings-record to another - by drag and drop ?
  8. Do holdings data get imported, in other situations than when migration of a collection?
  9. When editing a holding record, would that preferrably be in MARC format?

Proposed MARC mappings. See column 3 in https://wiki.folio.org/display/PLATFORM/Inventory+Metadata+Elements: need a small group of 1-2 hard-core catalogers to go over?

Ask colleagues / give suggestions to Lynn&Charlotte of colleagues who have cataloging expertise in special formats (music, audio-visual material, cartographic material etc.) to review existing metadata elements & suggest any additions

Thread about the inventory metadata elements on discuss: https://discuss.folio.org/t/august-31st-meeting-inventory-documentation/1229
