11:00 | Welcome / Agenda | Gabriel Gardner | |
Testing Schedule Need for testers | David Walker | Current version of the Central Package goes into production 2019/11/20.
Anyone is welcome to look at the Trello board. | |
| Primo View Creation | Ian Chan | For testing the new Uresolver, the view code should begin with your production view code. e.g. To see what a view looks like without any local or central package customization, add Modify your local package to include the new Uresolver. Then upload the customization to the _DEV view. See recording for details. Instructions for activating the custom Uresolver are at: Central Package optional features |
| Detailed testing plan | Zach Williams | Testing plan available at: Custom UResolver testing Error reporting form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSePXw3CbiSHiYVC1YQTbWG4vM3YeuBzygPLTNt7uf4zNZsTwQ/viewform Take care to report issues one at a time. Bundling issues in one report complicates the workflow. Requested enhancements are also welcome to be submitted through the error report form. |
| Citation Styles question | Dave Walker | The OOTB Primo citation styles do not always reflect the most recent version of Citation Style Language rules. Ex Libris updates things on their quarterly Primo releases. New CSL options can be added at the Campus or the Installation level. Dave has asked if there are any objections to updating Chicago (and others?) to the most recent version at the Installation level (i.e. for all campuses).

Decisions
- CO will update Installation-level Citation Style Language rules to reflect the most recent versions as of Nov. 2019, rather than wait for the Ex Libris quarterly update.
- Discovery leads at each campus are encouraged to create a new production Primo view with the custom Uresolver activated in their local JS/CSS custom Primo package.
