Hi Dolph,
Thanks for the update (and the extension to October 1 for SLO).
I'd like to clarify this:
- Instead, what you will load into Alma is actually the usage report from each vendor, not the consolidated reports that 360 / Intota provides.
- For non-SUSHI vendors, the Alma process will involve more manual work -- you will need to go proactively to the provider site and download the reports for uploading to Alma.
What I think you are saying is that Ex Libris won't be migrating any COUNTER data for us, and that it will the responsibility of each 360 Counter customer to
- configure SUSHI feeds for current and future usage data and
- download all of the older usage reports from either 360 Counter or the vendor sites and manually load them into Alma
I understand that this is the cleanest method and will prevent the data duplication issues that we've been concerned about, but I want to clarify that this indeed the case, as we had been told before, more than once, that Ex Libris planned to migrate 3 years of usage data for us, as they did for Ustat customers.
I want to be absolutely certain I understand this before our WG sends out instructions to the relevant campuses because the proposed method, if I understand it correctly, will represent a very substantial amount of work for these customers.
Thanks!
