A1: Developing a process for member libraries to help each other learn and use various catalog maintenance tools.
Q2: Is there another way of doing things besides a monthly meeting or a forum?
A2: Fine as is.
Q3: What services would you, as a cataloger, like to provide to your patrons that the next ILS could enable?
A3: Better maintenance tools; better leveraging of bibliographic and authority data in the patron interface; more flexibility in holdings displays.
Q4: Any questions for or about IUG?
A4: ICAT would like to be involved in next generation ILS evaluation: can IUG advise as to the role ICAT could take in this process?
Q5: What mechanisms of communication would the team prefer with IUG?
A5: Fine as is.
- “Suggested maintenance priorities” document revision. Kristin reviewed the document she contributed to the wikiand it was discussed by the team, as a model for the other submissions

Tasks Assigned:
- Casey will incorporate the information from each team member’s maintenance priorities document into the original document, for further discussion at the October meeting.
