Welcome & Attendance

Subcommittee Terms of Reference - Revised Draft Review

• The function of the subcommittee is to become experts on discovery, customer services, front end and research and make recommendations as requested by ISC or as are self-identified. The subcommittee may also support individual college decisions by providing background, tips, considerations, etc.

• No further comments on ToR.

ALMA & ILL/Physical Resource Sharing – Call for Subcommittee Research for Best Practices & Recommendations Discussion

• Borrowing requests are available through Alma. Do we want to implement a strong network across province where students can borrow through other college libraries? If yes, what is needed to support this? Topics that may need to be researched include:

  • What is the need within the colleges for resource sharing?

  • What’s the capacity?

  • What needs to be enabled in Alma/Primo to make this work?

  • Need to determine if resource sharing is something the colleges want (was not in the past)

  • Need to consider common lending policies and what would those be

• The subcommittee will consider preparing a Briefing Note/summary/background document for CLO18 Identifying considerations/decisions for resource sharing, focusing on physical resources for now in recognition that E-Resource Subcommittee & OCLS will be working on e-resource.

  • Review technical support documentation from Ex Libris need to be looked at (e.g. Physical Resources and ILL) and pulling out key considerations for CLO 18.

  • ACTION ITEM: Rachel will find Ex Libris documentation on this topic and post in Confluence. Other subcommittee members can volunteer for items and then begin researching before next meeting.

• Resources may include:

  • https://clo-collaboration-spaces.atlassian.net/l/c/AzjY8BuK See Fulfillment & Resource Sharing & Discovery sections, with links to supplementary documentation.

  • Investigate what it’s being done within the colleges or other resource sharing models (e.g. Ontario universities with Omni, college partnerships with universities)

  • Consider EL-UNA (has a working group regarding Controlled digital lending)

  • CLO (HLLR) Reciprocal Borrowing Agreement: https://clo.libguides.com/ld.php?content_id=34250802 (hasn’t been revised since 2007)

  • Canadian University Reciprocal Borrowing Agreement (CURBA): https://curba.ca/

ACTION ITEM: Liana find out when next CLO 18 meeting is scheduled
