Overall Status In Progress
Items Addressed (see separate documents for details):
Lag time publishing new course reserves from Alma to Primo
E-reserves
Difficulty of determining checkout periods in Alma Reading Lists and Primo
Course reserve waitlists/holds
Migrating library materials on reserve to come over with temporary AND permanent locations. (Script written by Sarina. Need campuses to test. Possibly CPSLO and Northridge)
Automated feed of courses from LMS to Alma. There is a systems task force working on this.
- Course Reserves Recommended Workflow: IN PROGRESS
- Taking items of reserve at end of term: IN PROGRESS
- Primo display–Course Information line – some items this doesn't show up, also some items where it does show up there is a "null" after the course code and namedisplay–Both suppressed and unsuppressed brief item records for instructor personal items show up in Primo Searches (both in course reserves and in library searches).IN PROGRESS
- How to place recalls when items needed for course reserves are checked out. IN PROGRESS
Items not addressed, but could be pursued if there is interest: IN PROGRESS
Cataloging personal copies best practice: This was demo’d in a training session so we did not pursue.Fees: Since CSUs do not sure course reserves, we did not think we needed to pursue uniform fees.
Booking course reserve materials: We did not see the usefulness of this feature, as it could tie up a course reserve item with no guarantee that the “booker” would show up for the item.

Why are we doing this?
To find solutions for placing materials on reserves both electronically and physically using ALMA, and to make sure the work displayed in PRIMO is useful and recognizable to both Patron and Library Personnel.

Weekly meetings will be on Tuesdays from 3 – 4 pm via Zoom.
We began drafting a list of topics that we want to consider/discuss regarding course reserves. All committee members should submit additional topics before our next meeting so we can discuss, prune, and prioritize the list at the next meeting.
Come up with items that you wanted added to the list of topics we want the task force to consider. Email to Cathe at colson05@calpoly.edu before the next meeting.
Please see attachments for Reserve updates.
