Michelle agreed to take meeting notes.
We reviewed action items from 2/3; all prior commitments had been completed.
SHAER portal & Bibliographer needs for data: We are interested in creating a culture shift to make "data literacy" a core skill. Currently SHAER plans to show each bibliographer how to add the widget and where to see the usage data on the Alma front screen.
3-day Loan Code: Spruill requested that the EOC reinstate the 3-day loan within Alma. It is needed for existing technology loans and would work within the new framework that is being established for technology lending being worked on by an RTL working group. "Technology" will be made another Fulfillment unit in Alma/Primo, with the Tech loaning locations listed, and the 3-day item loan would be associated with this Fulfillment unit. The 3-day loan code will only be appropriate for tech loans.
--Spruill will update the wiki page that lists the Item Policies that are active and those that are superceded, along with their mapping chart to show how former loan codes are mapped to active.
--Laura will have a Fulfillment unit created.
Establishing terms for Working Group members: EOC supports two-year terms with staggered terms and with the LTS members as ex officio/co-chairs.
--We will plan to host a meeting with all the working groups to review highlights with each other of what groups are working on and what would benefit from communicating across the WGs.
--Suzanne will ask Victoria to find a late-April date that works with the EOC membership's calendar
--We will also host an open meeting for the larger Harvard Alma community; we can use above meeting to help plan agenda.
--Laura will contact Corinna to answer her question regarding WG terms
We spent the remainder of the meeting reviewing the "Requests To Be Prioritized by the Alma Executive Committee" section of the Project List. We updated a few entries with newer information. LTS currently has no capacity to take on any additional projects, so EOC did not prioritize any new projects. Suzanne suggested that we make note of any projects that will help BD and ReCAP shared functionality and so that those can be first up when there is capacity.
General Updates:
- HL is hiring a project manager to manage our involvement in the ReCAP and BD Shared Index project. Both projects are moving forward soon.
- A ReCAP FAQ has been written and approved by CCDSC.
