https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zgrz4VvU4cYr0gVvMuaG_Oxg285CfqTKTfeVmpiL5OQ/edit

We will talk about WolfCon agenda next week.

Cate recommended that the group look at the list of Q4 features.

Subgroup Updates and Other Updates

Export Group: Use cases were reviewed. Flowcharts to be reviewed. Starting discussion about export profiles.

MARC-Instance Group will meet next week to try to finalize plans.

Data Import: Ann-Marie Breaux (Deactivated) is interested in feedback on Bib Import Mapping and on the CLI tool for changing the default mappings.

  • CLI editing of the default map.
    • This functionality is NOT available in 3.2, but is available on folio-testing, folio-snapshot, and folio-snapshot-load. We’re interested in feedback on:
      • Whether the documentation is clear and sufficient. If not, what else is needed?
      • Whether it works as expected
    • Please test on folio-testing, folio-snapshot or folio-snapshot-load
    • Put a note on the # data-import-batchload Slack channel if you’re changing the mapping rules, and which environment
    • Once you have finished PLEASE use the reset API to change the rules back to their original state
    • All will reset overnight
    • Send feedback to Ann-Marie on documentation and whether it’s working as expected
    • Background
  • This is how a simple rule looks, taking the value from MARC 001 field and putting it into the Instance HRID field:

"001": [

{

"target": "hrid"

}

]

Caiasoft Integration with InventoryJacquie Samples

A little background on what's been discussed and possible concerns – we will discuss this further next week

Caiasoft Managed Remote Storage (last updated 2019)

See particularly Vince's diagram of work/data flow

Cate commented that conversations about how the inventory data gets passed back and forth is a good conversation to have, since it has to this point been a circulation centered conversation.

Form/Genre terms from MARC 655

Right now "Nature of Content" can be configurable per institution. Form/Genre however is less flexible. Right now there is not a specific element in the record for Form/Genre. Some proposed options from Ann-Marie:

  1. Leave out of Instance. Info will still be in the MARC record. 
  2. Put 655 with Subject Headings in Inventory.
  3. Create another data element in the Instance for form/genre.

Sara - Implications for export? Ann-Marie - depends on where search is launched from. Laura - FOLIO native records that export for discovery layer need to be considered. Charlotte - Suggested including music librarians in this conversation. 

Ann-Marie - if mapping will be needed, 3-4 weeks would be a good time frame. If a new element is needed. Ann-Marie will put out a poll.  https://www.doodle.com/poll/qz68rarcgsuptp3p

Aaron Trehub noted that archival elements to be added as Inventory elements was discussed, but tabled. Specific data elements for music to possibly included in Inventory was also discussed, but pushed aside. How and when will these ideas be discussed? Ann-Marie: Hopefully early in Q1 hopefully gaps will be identified. Charlotte: If not already on MM SIG Parking Lot, this should be added. Laura suggested that we may want to consider at next week's meeting if we think this would be a good WolfCon topic. 


Terminology across Records in Inventory

Recent UX mock-ups show what is called Administrative Data in Instance/Holdings records shown as Item Data in Item records:

Is this of concern from an MM perspective? How important is consistency here?

Cate: Work on effective call number logic is being looked at. There will be an accordion for the effective call number. The effective call number block and effective location are being moved up. 

Charlotte: Could this new "Item data" area not be integrated with administrative data. Consistency is sacrificed in this latest UX design.

Laura wondered if keeping the label as "Administrative data" would be the best solution. Sara commented that it is confusing to see duplicate data on one screen - why are elements repeated on the same screen? 

Cate commented that she received a lot of positive feedback about this arrangement.  Charlotte: suggested moving Effective call number block and effective location to the top heading area - outside of accordions.  Cate noted that we do not have this UX pattern at the moment. Charlotte pointed out that it is consistent with having redundant data displayed at the top header area:

Felix: I was suggesting to add the effective call number block into the "permanent" section at the top: https://folio-project.slack.com/archives/GMAPRTZ6V/p1569592118055300


Related Instances (Preceding and Succeeding titles) developmentCharlotte Whitt

Development is delayed on implementation of Preceding/Succeeding titles in Instance records.
We are looking at a "thin thread" implementation for mvp:

UIIN-809 - Getting issue details... STATUS

UIIN-810 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Here is how we want these developed fully (post-mvp):

UIIN-426 - Getting issue details... STATUS / UIIN-640 - Getting issue details... STATUS

UIIN-639 - Getting issue details... STATUS / UIIN-641 - Getting issue details... STATUS


For an overview, see UXPROD-1893 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Future meeting topics

Filip Jakobsen suggests to use Message banner (a new component) to display if an instance record is marked as: Suppressed from discovery, Staff suppress, or Previous held, or holdings/item is marked Suppressed for discovery. This use is intended as a MVP solution: https://ux.folio.org/docs/guidelines/components/message-banner/ Post-MVP we aim for ux consitency with MARCcat.

STCOM-592 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Source of truth (SRS). Review the FOLIO metadata flow based on test of the newly implementation of edit freeze of records in Inventory when having only SRS and Inventory installed.

Inventory, MARCcat, Data Import Permissions interaction review

Search enhancements - possible also look at more general requirements for defining search, e.g. when to use: Phrase search, Truncating (left and/or right), Stemming, Nested search, Boolean search, etc. (TC and MM task)

Authority Data and Inventory Vision (small group work first)

Discovery – need to clarify sources of data for discovery vs. data needed for operations; this needs to be documented for the entire FOLIO community and direction should come from Product Council

Item record statuses and the apps that affect them

Music / Maps / Media cataloging review of data elements in Inventory

Texas A&M may have a music cataloger that can help.

Christie offered to load cartographic and music data from other libraries into their test FOLIO instance.

Jennifer (via chat): We should also look at video as well. Videos have other standard numbers EAN for instance and fields that people like to search and discovery them by
