June 17-19: FOLIO In-Person meeting


In the closing session, there were summaries from the POs about the meetings.  About 10 different speakers.  Peter to try to edit it down to make it listenable.

Morning session: favorable impression – maybe do the same thing.  Chalmers did a show-and-tell.  If the ALA session wasn't recorded, look to use this.  Also check to see if it was similar with the roadmap update session from a couple of weeks ago.  Also Mike Gorrell about workflows; confusion in the audience about what the workflow app is – can the discussion be heard?

June 22 (10am): Recording/Livestreaming ALA Presentations


Panel: Chalmers University of Technology – we're hosting ourselves, so streaming/recording rights seem clear.  Use this as a topic for a FOLIO Forum.

Novel Collaborations: Pioneering New Models for Library/Vendor Partnerships (repeat panel from ER&L) – Jesse, Andrew, Lynn.  Use ER&L recording?  If not, can we record an ALA program? (Kate is checking.)  If not, repeat this as Forum?

ER&L recording is now online.

?July 10 or 17: Panel Discussion of Outcomes from Working Meeting


The closing session contained a lot of this; maybe use this?

Product Owner session


Explaining what is involved in becoming a product owner.  Explain the slots that are open for product owner.  Possibly combine with Panel Discussion of Outcomes from Working Meeting? 

?August: Panel Discussion of Vendor Partners and Libraries

Moderator: Peter Murray

Depending on whether ALA is streamed.

Include discussions with libraries about how they envision other libraries getting involved.  About vendor involvement – from the vendor perspective and the library perspective.

Include discussion of KB vendors invited to the face-to-face meeting.

?September???: Open Library Foundation

Host: Ginny Boyer

To talk holistically about the communities in the Foundation: the ones that exist, the ones that are coming on. Talk about the idea of scope for the FOLIO project as it relates to the goals of these communities coming onboard. To include members of the OLF Board, ideally.

Branding as "OLF Forum" versus "FOLIOForum"

Rachel reached out to Ginny about this. September might be good timing.  Gather interest in WOLFcon in Texas in January 2020; ALA Midwinter Jan 17-20 then WOLFcon.

?: "Beyond ILS” session: Research/Special Collections

Host: Michael Winkler

Moderator: Sebastian Hammer

Heidi Mann, Nassib, Mitchell.

On hold for now. Sebastian is confirming with participants.

Preceded by Sebastian/Christopher/Michael with a session about where we are on the project.  What we've discussed with Resource Sharing, for instance. 

?: Panel Discussion of Early Implementers/Adopters Partners


Session on how Chalmers went and what the plans are from others. Representatives from TAMU and UChicago.
Codex
in order to put pressure on ourselves to make some decisions around Inventory and Codex
Review Idea Bank
  • Usage Statistics
  • Presentations could start to look at deployment, particularly in a hosted, non-hosted environment
  • Work to prep for migrations to FOLIO. Get implementation managers on a panel.
  • How FOLIO is impacting libraries now: view from Cornell – wait to reach out until we have better sense of implementation timelines; How are they viewing FOLIO from a strategic perspective
  • What is the international perspective on FOLIO? Can we get a panel of international sites (Australia, GVB) to give their perspectives? Plus, international update
  • Host a Forum in the Spanish language with roadmap discussion and demo, could be hosted by Lydia @ EBSCO, include UNAM development team. Rachel Fadlon to investigate.
  • Podcasting as a possibility to get developers to answer questions about the process, EBSCO has people who be able to edit
  • Panel of PO/SIG facilitator/developer together to discuss the full life cycle, moderated by product owner
  • Codex Revisited, based on the vision statement – including the entity formerly known as authority work.
  • Accessibility features/process of testing – perhaps in the fall after the issues of the latest testing are resolved?
