ULMS Fulfillment Policy Review/Update
Brandon has asked each functional committee to review policies listed on the ULMS wiki. Most policies were adopted during migration, and may have changed.
Default Replacement Costs: This policy was not approved by COLD. The group agrees to remove it from the list of policies.
Eliminating Daily Accruing Fines for Main Collection Items: This policy was approved by COLD as a recommendation for each campus. The group feels more clarification is needed and would like to revisit this policy.
One Year Loan for Faculty/Staff: This policy was approved by COLD. No changes are needed.
Semester Long Loan Period for Students: This policy was approved COLD. Clarification on the length of the loan period is needed (semester vs. term, minimum loan period includes renewals)
Cathe will meet with Brandon on April 4th to discuss policies.
Cathe emailed the list of issues resulting from Brandon’s check-in calls with each campus for the group to review before the next FFC meeting.
