Discussion items

Item	Notes
Provenance Code in Item Records	Item records with inherited system default value for provenance code creates a problem in Analytics, which reports the default value (e.g., Purchase) as "NONE". In Alma, these item records cannot be gathered in an advanced search with the default value; to include these records in an advanced search, the criteria must be "provenance code is empty." (San Marcos and Sacramento have reported this problem to Ex Libris.)
Authority Work Group	Emily Boss (Fresno), Jason Vasche (San Francisco) and Samuel Barber (Fullerton) will be the primary members of the Authority Work Group to assess authority work in Alma. Sarina Sinick (Chancellor's Office) will assist the Group. The Group will contact local campuses to assist with authority work, as needed, as they assess resources needed to perform authority work in a shared environment. The Group will also assist in implementing training for a CSU NACO Funnel, in collaboration with Resource Management Functional Committee and the CO.
Single E-Book Titles: Record Selection and Enhancement	Questions raised due to the recent TS Open Forum discussion about duplicate records in NZ for e-books (from OCLC and CZ) and selection of records for enhancement (for example, Should libraries enhance OCLC records or CZ records? What is the parameter used to select OCLC record over the CZ record: efficiency, perpetual access? Topic to be further explored in consultation with Acq/ERM Functional Committee.
