  1. Minute taker:  Andrea Imre
  2. Updates:
    1. Salesforce – Paige’s update: Ex Libris provided list of institutional accounts for each library in CARLI that licenses some EL product via CARLI; current proposal is to link from SFXAdmin to Salesforce using institutional account rather than individual account; E-mail address associated with account will be distribution list maintained by CARLI, and SFX account admin contacts as well as I-Share liaison will be subscribed to the list; ISU account was tested with this approach and this approach will work; for now submit incident / case to EL to CARLI until these accounts are set up; CARLI encourages to consolidate individual accounts with institutional account. Paige will be sending out an e-mail to SFX listserv.

      i.    ELUNA/IGeLU voting on SFX software enhancements via NERS is going on right now.      
      ii.   NERS, the enhancement balloting system is down and needs to be rebuilt, which probably means the voting period will be extended.

      iv.  Some individual CARLI libraries are ELUNA members and they can vote, too.
