Thank you to everyone who attended the recent Inventory and Record Merge Working groups open house held on 2/26/2021. We reviewed 4 workflows and gathered many more through the survey sent out before the open house. Here are links to the resources covered in the open house:

We will share the results of the survey, comments from the open house, and revised workflows based on open house discussions to help us determine the needed functionality in FOLIO with FIT. Our work focused on metadata and cataloging. All of the working groups are looking at their workflows in FOLIO. If you have questions about those workflows in other FOLIO areas such as users or acquisitions, contact your FIT liaison or the appropriate working group. Also, if you have more comments or ideas for workflows, use this Form to make sure we get your ideas and other workflows to FIT.

Again, thank you everyone for your hard work and great conversations.

 

5C Inventory & Record Merge Survey to Gather Workflows

The Inventory Working Group and Record Merge Working Group invites you to an open house on February 26, 2021. The purpose of this open house is to update the 5C community on the working groups’ activities and review metadata functionality in FOLIO. We will have 4 potential metadata and cataloguing workflows to review.

We would like to know about your metadata and cataloging workflows and to capture what those needs might be in FOLIO. Please use the linked Google form to submit this information. We would like to get the following information about each workflow: name, description, people involved, what FOLIO apps might be involved, how this workflow gets started, what the workflow is supposed to do in terms of an end result, and a brief outline of the steps involved. You can use the form as many times as needed to document each workflow. We realize that there will be unknowns. If you are unsure of some of your needs for a particular workflow, we understand. Please use the Comment section to make any notes about these unknowns or your questions. We will use this information to troubleshoot and advocate for our FOLIO future together!

Recording Available for the 5C Bib Merge Open House

The 5C Bib Merge Working Group Open House recording and chat script are now available. Below you will find those links along with links shared during the discussion.

We are asking for help with reviewing note fields. Some of the reports for the 5XX have to be downloaded. If you experience issues, contact the working group. Please note that it is not necessary to use a $5 for every single note field. This only pertains to a note MARC tag that allows a subfield 5 and where the information needs to be associated to a particular resource and institution. In contrast, we are asking that institutions set aside the use of local fields 9XX, X9X, XX9. The exceptions are 019 for the old OCLC number and 099 for local call number. For more guidance on these and other fields, see our Shared Bib guidelines. If you have questions or comments, don’t hesitate to contact the working group via Slack or email.

Updated – Attend Virtually the 5C Record Merge Open House for Updates on Shared Bibliographic Records

Update: The 5C Record Merge Working Group strives to ensure that all can attend by providing a virtual option to our open houses and meetings. In light of recent institutions’ restrictions and COVID-19, this Friday’s open house will have the option to attend virtually via a Zoom scheduled meeting. We expect attendance numbers well below 50 and the in person meeting is still scheduled as this falls within Smith’s restriction of how many can meet in person for an event. Of course, please use your best judgement. Our documents can be viewed online which includes the presentation for this Friday. Lastly, to facilitate feedback and communication, we encourage you to send us your comments.
