I like the idea of calling it the Student Success Interest Group, or
something along those lines. I think that would bridge all library types
and how their service supplies the information needs of all students at all
levels. And it wouldn't preclude discussing the differences in how that
service
I agree with all that Jane said.
We don't support any academic libraries in PINES, but I have worked in
academic libraries and I'll always be interested in expanding Evergreen to
be flexible enough to support all types of library needs.

I also wouldn't want to see a separate academic fork of Evergreen. I feel
very fortunate to work in a library that blends approaches that are
typically associated with both academic and public libraries. There are

I'm still interested in participating. I think it died mostly because
there was nobody taking a leadership role to keep the
meetings/discussions going. In addition to discussing workflows, I would
like to discuss development that could make Evergreen a more attractive
option for academics.
Just throwing in, and not to derail anything from Evergreen for Academics,
that there are things that academics do that publics can benefit from.
There's always been this tendency to silo by type (in a much broader sense

how we do holds and how we want the display in the public catalog to appear.
I can probably list a bunch of other things like

institutions who were discussing issues of interest to academic
libraries that use Evergreen (e.g. course reserves, cataloging and
display needs, workflows, integration with campus systems).
