1:30-2:00 | Functional Committee Reports | All | Resource SharingThe CONTU Guidelines and ILLiad Updates task forces have both had their first meetings. A lot of interest in both task forces. Working on building evidence for a satisfaction survey meeting with ExLibris. The RSFC will be hosting breakout rooms during this week’s I-SPIE TV in order to gather feedback and examples from our community of practice on top issues identified by the RSFC in the satisfaction survey. Working with the FFC on exploring how we can use Alma’s resource sharing request API to accommodate CSU+ requesting for CalState Walkin users. Met with ILL coordinator at UCSD and chair of UC courier team to discuss their interest in an ILL/resource sharing reciprocal agreement with the CSUs. Learned a little bit about how the UC courier contract is structured. Drafted a systemwide resource sharing reciprocal agreement. Would like to seek COLDs approval to establish systemwide resource sharing reciprocal agreements with the UC libraries. Planning to test CSU+ requesting in Primo VE. Chris is in the process of setting our campuses up.
Resource ManagementFulfillmentContinued working with the RSFC to recommend options for Walk-in User CSU+ requests. Began working on organizing and providing documentation to the fulfillment top 3 issues for our meeting with ExLibris. Began preliminary Primo VE testing for fulfillment functions. The next Fulfillment Open Forum will be Thursday, March 25th at 11am. We will demo Digitization and Walk-in User workflows.
ERMDiscoveryAssessment & Analytics We met this morning with the Ex Libris team regarding our priority issues for Analytics. There is some improvement in Network Zone Analytics performance and we learned some best practices for creating reports that help. Christina shared those best practices with the listserv and on Slack today. Ex Libris is doing some additional investigation of the other two issues we raised. We have received 16 responses to our usage data survey. We're hoping for a few more responses before we wrap up, and then Heather Cribbs will be putting together a report and we'll talk about next steps.
As I noted at the last steering committee meeting, we received the report from the data visualization task force, and that task force's work is now considered complete. Their recommendation was to create a CSU-wide data lake or data repository and they concluded that Tableau may not have the features we need at this time. There are some possibilities that working with the APIs might improve the functionality of Tableau, but we would need to identify resources to support that development work. I'm attaching the report from the task force here.
AcquisitionsDiscussed the future ExLibris meeting to discuss program issues. Discussed problems with our campuses contingency plans for the Fall. Discussed budget calendars and preparing for the fall budget.
