2017-09-13 - Consortia SIG Notes

Housekeeping

• member list on wiki

Items to update on

• requirements review
• consortia/union definition

What do we need help with?

• how do we codify things like FOLIO tenant model, consortia definition, etc.
• will be presenting to other SIGs

Need to make sure that consortia are part oft of architectural foundations

Consortia/Union definitions review

• https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ktgqdA8BqRXEH19UhV3t9mescZHS9gOeVpq6iTNnsdg/edit?usp=sharing

Sharing budget is a key attribute of library systems

Vince: does a consortia exist as a tenant on its own?

Should branches have different tenants?

Suggestion: Grid of needs for different cases

• rows of requirements/characteristics/needs
• columns of types of consortia (e.g. consortia, union, network, etc.)
  • or maybe these should be specific (actual) consortia
• need to capture both current and aspirational needs
