  • Include pandemic and pre-pandemic in questions 1 and 2

  • Add time periods to questions 1 and 2 (take from last question)

  • Ask about potential road-blocks for the different resources sharing models. i.e. cyber security?

  • Asking about their actual ILL policies, if they have one

  • Consider incorporating Ex Libris Resource Sharing Questionnaire - no relevant questions were found

The subcommittee would like to send out the survey to all 18 colleges.

ACTION ITEM: Liana to move ILL survey into Microsoft Forms.

3. Discuss findings from Travis and Katrina’s ask ILL staff if they know of consortium ILL policies

Centennial is part of a consortium of Ontario colleges and universities and we do not lend to or borrow from other Ontario institutions or any libraries outside the province. 

Algonquin has a local agreement with Universities and public libraries in the area that they use often. Otherwise they rarely go outside the Ontario College system.

4. Discuss Ex Libris Resource Sharing Questionnaire

The survey was provided to OCLS but OCLS suggested that colleges are a better source of information. The subcommittee determines they will fill out the survey and then determine if further consultation with the colleges is needed.

Liana has captured answers answered so far.

5. Discovery Working Group? - a group to guide colleges through decisions related to Primo that will help facilitate user access to resources and ease library staff decision making fatigue.

  • Is this committee interested in planning and guiding decisions for the rest of the colleges regarding Discovery?

  • Do the colleges want a NZ Primo Instance? What are potential use cases for a NZ Primo Instance?
