Welcome Dana

ISC Update (Katherine)
The https://clo-collaboration-spaces.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CIS/pages/362643457 has been approved by the steering committee with minor changes (1 addition was made - recommended for all colleges)
Training Communication and PR Committee have made a final decision on the name of the platform - more information about the final decision will be made available soon.
Aubs and Mugs working on finalizing the logo and name branding for the project both in English and French. The next phase of the project is now taking place in terms of branding standards.
An https://clo-collaboration-spaces.atlassian.net/l/c/gRiYYfpX overarching briefing note has been passed. The briefing note pertains to the decolonization of catalogue terms and work and states libraries recognize the work being done, the work that needs to be done, and the offensive terminology present in current cataloguing language. The briefing note is to act as a collection of recommendations or a guide for any colleges that wish to use it. Colleges are free to use their own pre-existing statements. More information will be included in the upcoming Happy Monday post.
Review the new Analytics page for Page 1+ Alma & Primo Guide (Aura/Lauren)
The guide has been deemed comprehensive for the current phase of the project.
ACTION ITEM: Lauren to update the “Overview” section of the “How to in Alma - Analytics”, specifying the impact of User/Staff Roles on analytics capabilities to provide clarity
Report Templates in Alma Analytics (Liana)
Motion posed to examine further the types of reports that are being used and shared between OCLS and colleges to determine what may need to be replicated in Alma. There was an initial request for colleges to indicate any activities that are done in Sirsi, and would need to be done in Alma. The only reports indicated were OCLS circulation reports.
https://clo-collaboration-spaces.atlassian.net/l/c/BJu7g1brIf shared report templates are needed, the subcommittee may need to consider how the templates would be constructed and shared in Alma.
ACTION ITEM: Lingling Jiang (Sheridan College) will look into Sirsi Reports Sheridan currently uses provided by OCLS and are still needed. And investigate if there is an Alma equivariant available.
