From SCELC: The Partnership for Shared Book Collections Shared Print Discovery Task Force of the Infrastructure Working Group is looking for new members from Alma libraries.
Charge: This group will explore the possibilities for library systems in support of the discovery and access of retentions for monographic shared print programs. While this approach is platform-agnostic, it will take as a use case Ex Libris’s Alma (ILS) and Primo (discovery layer). The group will explore what Ex Libris and this system stack can currently do for discovery and access of shared print (i.e., leveraging the 583 note), explore program and library needs, and what current gaps could be filled. The end product of this work will be a summary detailing the above areas that can be shared with the wider shared print and Alma user communities.
NACO training coming up that several of us are taking - we hope to discuss during or after, what kind of policies for LC name entry the CSU's might want to adopt. Initial thoughts are for adding local tribal names from the work the IDTF is doing, and CSU faculty authors
Nerissa and Jill are talking to Jessica H. about creating a set of OA resources in ALMA (CZ and/or NZ) that do not have the MARC 506 field tag that information the OA icon and filter in Primo. Nerissa's going to help me create the set, and then I'm going to create a norm rule to run the 506 edit as a job
We discussed other ideas for secondary resource type based on 008 indicators. We have the following list
Government documents - 008/28 : c, f, l, m, o, s
Nerissa noted that when her staff was looking at this indicator previously, they noticed that a lot of university presses use the s indicator for 'state agency'. We want to see if we can filter these out in the logic
Comic books/graphic novel - 008/24-27 : 6
Theses - 008/24-27 : m (may already be captured by Primo, wanted to double-check)
K-12 material - 008/22 : a, b, c, d, j
Magazine : 008/21 : g (to differentiate from journals)
We discussed NZ manager advocacy and bullet points for possible position description
Hope to do a joint meeting with discovery group in March
