Last week, the MOP and OCLC Data Sync teams held three public meetings to present updates on both projects. The Data Sync WG also presented its preliminary recommendations. Our thanks to everyone who attended and contributed to the lively Q&A. Please continue to contribute your ideas!
The MOP team has scoped several aspects of Phase 1 projects. Summary findings for each project can be found on the Project Status page. From there, you can access individual pages for each project presenting detailed findings, including raw data. We will continue to update the new wiki pages as we progress.

We have compiled a punch list of 230+ items covering a wide range of potential clean up projects including pre- and post- OCLC reclamation and pre-migration issues.

We thank you for the feedback received to date and encourage you to contribute more ideas. We welcome your input! All ideas are valuable! Many issues will require additional analysis by LTS before they can be prioritized, but please keep them coming.
