Preparation for Testing

1. Ensure that you have the correct roles for performing resource sharing activities in Alma: You will need the roles of Fulfillment Services Operator or Fulfillment Services Manager role, scoped to your resource sharing library. Please refer to the configuration documentation if you need to add these roles.

2. Prior to testing, implement the configurations for Go Live included in the configuration documentation:

...

3. Identify at least 3 items that you have made available for resource sharing requests that you will be able to use for testing. We recommend that your partner should not also have a copy of that title.

Testing

A live demonstration will be held for each cohort. Members of each cohort have been paired into testing partners based on rota. See the Cohort One Partners Table cohort partner tables below.

We recommend that you begin testing with your partner by replicating the demonstration done in the meetingshared in our previous meetings. A recording is available here:https://clo-collaboration-spaces.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AYCiVg (Minute 22:35).

The borrowing library demonstration included:

...

• Cancelling a request

• Rejecting a request as the borrowing library

• Rejecting a request as the lending library

• Placing a hold on the item

• Renews

• Renews when there is a second hold on the item

• Any other tests that you would like to run
