Meeting began at approximately 11:35 a.m.

  1. Minutes of January 18, 2008 were approved.

  2. CARLI update, Jen: 
    • CARLI is working with new member libraries. The libraries have turned in their data migration worksheets and are in MFHD training today.
    • Staff from the 11 VuFind early adopter libraries met yesterday for discussion and questions.  The early adopters are being asked to confirm that they want to continue as early adopters.
    • All CARLI offices will be moving to Neil Street in May.
    • CARLI is doing the final cleanups on the SSN project. Some libraries are at a standstill because their parent institutions need to do further work on this.

  3. IUG update, Carlos: 
    • There is the possibility of forming a Cataloging Standards and Certification committee.
    • The Instruction group is discussing whether tutorials need to be updated.
    • The OPAC team is working on upgrade testing instructions.
    • The agenda for the Liaison Forum (March 18th) has been finalized and will include information about liaison functions & tools, statistics overview, and afternoon sessions about each Voyager functional area.
    • The Resource Sharing Code Revision Task Force, which is mainly concerned with I-Share loan period consistency, should have a recommendation in about a month.
    • IUG has asked the CARLI Program Committee about a Copyright Forum. IUG will need to work with the Public Services Working Group to draft a proposal and forum agenda.
    • UIUC has asked IUG about the possibility of including the Voyager media-booking module in the update checker.
    • E-journal cataloging is not done in I-Share much, but it is a big issue for resource sharing—what happens to ILL long-term? If not catalogued, then not discoverable.  It’s an open issue and big problem.
    • Document delivery with British Library—NEIU has been working with since Fall 2007 and found it’s difficult to set up accounts.

  4. ERMS Recommendations Document
    After discussion, it was agreed that Ted will draft an introduction, conclusion, and new title, then send to Jen, who will forward to this group to finalize by end-of-day next Wednesday, February 20th.

  5. Ted suggested everyone review the Acq usage survey to discuss at the next meeting.

  6. March 20 Open Conference Call
    Anne suggested the topic of ‘worst practices’ and that participants could be asked bring at least one worst practice scenario to the conference call. All liked this idea.  Anne will draft an announcement for the call.

  7. Other
    • Jen said the B&T EDI problem has been resolved: B&T fixed their file format.
    • Ted asked Anne about Wimba training for FPC.  Anne & Jen will work on this.
