Good afternoon,
I will be taking a vacation the week of February 17th. To work around my
absence, I've moved February's Core Team meeting back one week to *February
14th @ 1pm*. If you can't attend at this time, the meeting will be
recorded. I'll send out an agenda in the coming weeks. Thank you for your
flexibility and have a great weekend!

Hello everyone,
The first step in configuring your VuFind catalog is to fill out the VuFind
intake form linked below. *Please complete the VuFind Intake form (one
response per library) by January 31, 2025*.
VuFind Intake Form: https://forms.gle/z9QrDWUYGzZtXGT97
The intake form presents basic customization options with space for you to
request more specific customizations based on the unique needs of your
library. Specialized customization requests will be reviewed by Index Data
to determine what is possible. Some requests might be easy to implement,
while others might be possible but require development work and won’t be
ready by go-live. We’ll discuss the specifics of these with you as they
come up.
Once you have completed the intake form, Index Data will configure your
test VuFind catalog for review. During the review period, you can still
request changes to your VuFind configuration. Nothing is set in stone if
you request a feature on the intake form and change your mind during the
review period; however, after the review period, changes may not be able to
be implemented by your go-live date. We'll provide more details about the
dates of the review period once Index Data has completed the test VuFind
catalogs.
If you would like to review and compare VuFind catalogs for other FLO
libraries, here are some examples:
- https://libcat.simmons.edu/
- https://catalog.berklee.edu/
- https://catalog.flo.org/
- https://libcat.emerson.edu/
- https://libcat.emmanuel.edu/
- https://libcat.mcphs.edu/
- https://vufind.wit.edu/
Finally, please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have
about the intake form. I am more than happy to meet with you and review the
form in more detail prior to you submitting the final version. Let me know
if you’d like to schedule a meeting.
Regards,
Jenn

Good morning everyone,

changes/issues to the issue tracker below. Note: I've already done my
review and
added some issues/changes of my own.

Hello all,
Friendly reminder that we'll be meeting this Friday at 1pm for our monthly
Core Team meeting. The agenda is pretty sparse as we've had a slower month
due to the holidays. As always, feel free to use the hour to ask questions
about the migration, FOLIO, VuFind, etc. See you then!

Hello all,
Based on the Doodle poll I put out before the holidays, the date that
worked for the most people for our next Core Team meeting was next *Friday,
January 17th at 1pm*. This is our regular meeting with all libraries and
Index Data to review how the migration is going. I'll put out a reminder
with agenda and Zoom details next week. See you then!
