1.      Approved by ILS Committee 12/1/21, policy updates completed 12/8/21

b.      Rank Technical Services bugfixes

                                                              i.      Discussion: A. Gannaway reviewed the spreadsheet of bugfixes.  Each subcommittee will be choosing a top 15.  However, there are not 15 bugfixes for this group to vote on.  We would put these into survey that would go to the directors to vote on.  The survey results will go to the IC in February.  We come up with Top 5 bugfixes (in all modules) to give to LibLime.  There are new problems that were reported and they are already working them into the next point release so it’s not on this spreadsheet (ex. spine labels giving internal server error).  The bugs were also discussed at the December User Groups.  There are two Acquisitions, no Serials, and the rest are Cataloging bugs.  The committee went through each item on the spreadsheet and gave them a ranking. We will send the high and medium bugs on to be added to the bigger list of priorities.

c.       Rank Technical Services development ideas

                                                              i.      Discussion: A. Gannaway reviewed the spreadsheet of development ideas and committee members prioritized/ranked them.  The input from the User Groups was discussed and there is a separate column with this information.  A. Gannaway can send an email out summarizing what we did at today’s meeting.  The group should provide additional feedback by next Wednesday before she starts compiling the survey for directors.  Like the bugs, the development ideas will also go into a survey for the directors, and then will go on to the IC in February. So far we have four top development projects selected so far. 

d.      Cataloging of large print audio-enabled books

                                                              i.      Discussion: VER asked the about audio-enabled books we are cataloging because now some are being produced as large print. MAD bought some and has added them to the catalog. The large print note is displayed in the Alternate title.  Because audio-enabled books are cataloged as sound recordings, we cannot add large print as a format for limiting purposes. K. Linke will talk to catalogers about Linking Manual updates for these large print audio-enabled books.

e.      Other Bibliovation questions and discussion

                                                              i.      7.0 upgrade January 10, 2022, details on Bibliovation Support page

                                                            ii.      Discussion: Barcodes of items added yesterday and today cannot be searched.  K. Linke reported this to LibLime. 

5.      Plan for Next meeting:  March 9, 2022 via phone/video conference

6.      Adjournment at 11:14 am
