        • Centennial has placed themselves on the implementation waiting list

  • Alma D

    • Virginia, Marnie, Liana, and Katherine met to discuss Alma D earlier this week

    • A timeline is being worked on to ensure that colleges will be supported during the process if Alma D is implemented.

Handling NZ Setting Change Requests (keep on Agenda)

  • The handling of the NZ Setting Change Requests is an example of what the Page 1+ will give support to moving forward

    • A Hypothetical Situation: a patron is requesting the library to purchase materials

      • OCLS will receive a request from the applicable library to enable the function. However, enabling this request will impact individuals at all colleges, so OCLS will have to ensure the majority is agreeable to the situation.

      • The services provided by OCLS will become more transparent, with a need driven customer service focus

      • A member of OCLS would create documentation to evaluate all options, dependencies, questions, etc. prompted by the material request. Then the documentation could be brought forward to CLO and other voting members to evaluate the information.

      • There would always be the opportunity to discuss with different committees for their expertise

    • Questions:

      • How will things like this be set up to view (available in other colleges)

      • Is there a way to prompt students to look for the material in other library catalogues before requesting the material be purchased? This might increase ILL activity
