Hi Yamil,
Now that we're doing this topic-based meetings, I would like to try for
more than quarterly because I think the format will lend itself to
meatier discussions. Every other months seems fine to me.
I have no opinion on the topic for December, but, if people want to talk
about course reserves, I would be prepared to do the planning for that
meeting.
Thanks!
Kathy

Hello,
Just a reminder that at 12 PM EST I am closing the poll for picking a
date/time to meet in December on IRC. Please put in a vote to break
the poll's current tie. Also please forward this email to those in
your organization that may want to participate.

Also, we still need feedback on these two questions....
2) We wanted to pick topics to focus on during future meetings, and
more specifically what topic should we pick for the December meeting.
During the October meeting there was a lot of interest in course
reserves as the topic of the next meeting. I would suggest that we
consider picking that as our meeting topic for December, since I was
not able to plan a November meeting. Though feel free to suggest other
topics to cover in December or for the next group meeting in 2016
Topic suggestions: inventory functionality, improving in-house use
functionality, course reserves, patron loading, exporting citations in
the catalog, authorities
3) We also wanted feedback on how often we should meet going forward.
Some folks suggested quarterly meeting. Though since we might start
picking specific topics to cover at teach meeting, we might want to
meet every month or every other month.
Thanks in advance,
Yamil
