Attendees
Goals
- Discuss I18N needs that are not yet on the spreadsheet
Discussion items
| Time | Item | Who | Notes |
|---|
| 30 min | I18n tab in 2018 Document | Cate | - Page layout responsive to text direction for selected language moved to v1 because it's being considered in FOLIO UI components
- Added row clarifying that FOLIO won't translate user-generated content (e.g. Notes) or library resource metadata (unless translation is supplied in source data)
|
| 25 | Discussed other tab themes in document to see if any had I18n implications | Ann-Marie | Miscellaneous other international implications (not necessarily i18n - most should be covered by other tabs) - What EDI standards are used in the middle east? Edifact is default standard. Between that and API communication, we should be covered globally
- Need to have flexibility in Acquisitions workflows, and even allow FOLIO use without Acquisitions
- There are many libraries that have campuses/branches in different countries
- They are getting by today in one way or another (separate systems, single system in English, other?) but FOLIO needs to do better
- Will one language per tenant really be sufficient (even just for v1)?
- Implications for the consortia discussion
- There are international considerations for data privacy
- Some countries require data centers to be in a certain location
- Some customers are satisfied if they can just get local backup
|
| 5 | Planning for next meeting | Cate | - We'll synch with Peter and rest of team by email to see if anyone has any additional agenda items for next week
- If not, we may pause meetings until we have something more to discuss (e.g. implementation options, handling of Asian languages etc.)
|
| | Action items | | - Cate will see if internationalization needs should be added to the consortia research questions
- Cate will send Harry a link to these notes so he can process anything that isn't already included in the other tabs
