This semester’s priorities

• Invite a member of Resource Management to join us as a liaison

• Can we create a task force with ERM, ILL, to cataloging the issues with discovery (survey? slack?)

  • Create an overview of the data issues (duplicates, etc)

  • Creating survey questions for slack or other avenues of feedback

• Mobile Experience - describe the problems for reporting (full write-up with screen captures)

  • Julie/Chris

• Controlling Duplicate Records

  • FRBR & Dedupe

• Reviewing Holdings Display (slow loading, caching)
