Page1+ Consortium OCLS Service Proposal

Service Area:

...

Page1+ Consortium - General Services & Support

Summary

Supporting participating colleges library staff and their IZ through a helpdesk

Rationale

This proposal speaks to OCLS’s anticipated role in providing a suite of value-added services and activities that support the colleges participating in the Page1+ Consortium and leverage the consortial value offered by a shared library services platform.

Rationale

Describing the initial foundational services the OCLS will provide to support the Alma Consortium.

  • Advantage of centralized knowledge and efficient expertise

  • Leveraging longstanding partnership with college library staff delivering customized service

  • Facilitated collaboration through the sharing of service

Access Requirements:

Access In order to perform these services OCLS will need:

  • Admin access to participating college’s IZ Alma and Primo VE instance

...

  • Credentials or guest access to College SSO in support of their Primo VE instance

Dependencies:

Requires access

Future Considerations:

Distribute and maintain letter templates

API Development and Management

Alma Training School

Proposed Funding Model

The identified funding model represents OCLS’s best effort at determining how the costs to provide proposed services will be covered.

  •  Centrally funded:
  •  Cost recovery: the work in support of college library staff in their IZincorporated into annual Alma Consortium fee schedule

  •  Professional Service:
  •  Under review

Service Activities

As the migration to Alma impacts OCLS services, OCLS would like to provide some guidance about what services will look like after implementation. Although things may shift as we move forward, the OCLS Activities table outlines the high-level activities that OCLS currently believes will be part of this service.

To provide some clarity about important activities that the colleges/third parties may need to undertake, we have provided those in the Out of Scope Activities table. These out of scope activities are not meant to be an exhaustive list of all activities for the colleges, but rather to identify activities that OCLS will not be undertaking on behalf of the colleges post Go Live.
