Assessment & Analytics

Christina Hennessey (Unlicensed)

1. The group has been continuing to help libraries and individual librarians with their ACRL/IPED reports (due Feb 2022) and various Analytics questions from email and Slack. Keep them coming!

2. Ex Libris continues to work on the issues with deleted items out of the Analytics Shared Folders reappearing the next week. Once this work is resolved, we can continue cleaning up this area again. 

3. We will start planning the ULMS Analytics training and webinars for the summer soon. Thanks to everyone that filled out our survey!

4. There are very few upcoming Analytics webinars or trainings from Ex Libris or other library groups. We keep an updated list on the wiki:

• Cataloging Analysis Best Practices, Ex Libris, February 22, 2022 7am Pacific Time. Register for free

• The New and Improved Alma Overlap Analysis Tool, Ex Libris, March 22, 2022 7am Pacific Time. Register for free

In the meantime, you can still access the 8 sessions from the Analytics Master Class from Fall 2022.

Resource Management

Brinna Pam Anan

The ULMS Resource Management Functional Committee met Tuesday, February 1, 2022 from 1-2 PM.

1. An email was sent to the ULMS TS Mailing List regarding Local Fields that all CSU campuses are using.  The purpose is to inquire which local fields campuses are using to determine if this will affect use of Primo VE Norm Rules.  An announcement and reminder will also be given at the next TS Open Forum on Thursday, February 17.  Local Fields updating is due to the RMFC Chair by Wednesday, March 30.

2. The NZ Management Group has completed the NZ Refresh.  The Refresh began on Tuesday, January 18 and finished on Sunday, February 6.  The Group imported a total of 5,450,211 records and did not import any WorldCat records that didn't have a match.  There are approximately 359,000 WorldCat records that need to be examined to determine how to take care of them.  The NZ Management Group's guess is that these records have holdings in the NZ but have no holdings in OCLC.

3. While performing the NZ Refresh, the NZ Management Group discovered a few jobs which have been scheduled to run.  One of them is the Update BLDSS Request job.  The NZ Management Group inquired if this job could be turned off as the BLDSS stands for the British Library Document Supply Service which is meant to facilitate resource sharing between the CSUs and the British Library.

4. The RMFC approved a Request for Recommendation to continue work on SAC's approach to offense subject headings.  This Request was sent to Brandon for the Steering Committee's review.

5. As an update to the incorrect coding of archival materials in OCLC records which affected the resource types in Primo VE, the NZ Management Group sent a file of approximately 2,300 records that need investigation as they are coded as archival materials on Thursday, January 20.  Some items may legitimately be archival but some are not.  OCLC offered to perform this examination and fix for us.

6. The next ULMS RMFC meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, March 1, 2022 at 1 PM.
