Housekeeping (Andrea)
Subgroups
Monday: reserves; sub-groups {revised; see below}
Google Doc:
- What are you doing w/ reserves? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bIsBiY5yRbUvwyDhOyDmztnmDKFqyOg42OExlPx2SQg/edit#gid=0
- What do you need from reserves?

Check-in Screen (Darcy)
Scan barcode + item look-up
Option to process differently (backdating, for example)
Defaults:
Today (date), now (time), this library (location)
- Date/time needs to be now or past only; not future
- System will capture both real time & altered check-in time (back-dated time)
- Is there some notification that user is now backdating?
Alternative screens presented.
Check-in screen listing items
Location discussion tabled
Owner: Does this need to be visible on this screen
Discussion:
Entire row clickable to access item record
OR
Individual clicks for details
OR
The ellipsis
If entire row is clickable, we don’t want to lose current session/screen
Check-in Alerts (Google sheet)
Please add additional concerns.
Perhaps this an opportunity for a one-shot sub-group.
Print slips (Tania)
Kinds of slips needed:
Current list:
- Check-in receipt
- Checkout receipt
- Awaiting Pickup-hold shelf
- Delivery request
- In transit for request
- In transit to go home
What is the definition of slip?
(Slips vs. notifications?)
Things that get triggered at a service point that needs to be printed (or text, etc.); critical for next thing you need to do OR critical for the patron
Others?
- Payment receipt
- Request by department for workflow (ex: repair, reserve, cataloging)
Printing: needs receipt printing capability; printer/paper standards will vary; needs to be configurable
What about paging slips?
This overlaps w/ what we are talking about here; paging requires us to go get item; these slips are at check-in (we have item in hand).
We need to have a separate discussion about paging slips. There will be local preferences (generation of individual slips vs. reports)
Meeting on Monday (some members will be at Midwinter):
- Sub-group formation
- Non-controversial issues, re: slips (Tania)
Meeting on Thursday:
- Conversation, re: reserves
