Dry Run Update - Day 1
by Eliana Lima 28 Apr '25

28 Apr '25

Hello all, We've made some progress on this week's dry run (Lesley, MassArt, and MFA). As of right now we've wiped out everyone's data and done a fresh export for users, inventory, and ERM (Lesley only) data. As for the data reload, we've finished loading Lesley's patrons and have started working on MassArt. Tomorrow we plan on finishing the user reload and moving onto inventory. I will continue to give daily updates until we're done and staff can use their systems again. I'll also be reaching out to individual libraries with summaries of any issues we run into (if any). Have a nice evening! -- *Eliana Lima* *Projects Coordinator Librarian* 617-989-5026 eliana(a)flo.org My Zoom room: https://zoom.us/j/9300044265

Good morning all, FLO and Index Data have finished a complete reload/review of NEC's data. NEC staff are free to use their sandbox again. Next week will be the dry run for the remaining 3 libraries (Lesley, MassArt, and the MFA). As usual, we ask that staff stay out of their sandbox until we've finished the dry run process (starting Monday). You can still use the FLO shared sandbox <https://flo-test.folio.indexdata.com/> if you need to use that time for training. I'll reach out to everyone with updates/results of the dry run next week. Dry Run Schedule: - Week of April 14th - Stonehill College - Week of April 21st - New England Conservatory - Week of April 28th - MassArt, MFA, and Lesley University -- *Eliana Lima* *Projects Coordinator Librarian* 617-989-5026 eliana(a)flo.org My Zoom room: https://zoom.us/j/9300044265

Stonehill Dry Run Begins Today (4/14-4/18)
by Eliana Lima 14 Apr '25

14 Apr '25

Hello again, Friendly reminder that Stonehill's dry run begins this week. Stonehill staff are asked to not use their FOLIO sandbox as Index Data and FLO work on reloading all of your data. If you need to use a sandbox during the dry run for training purposes, please use the FLO shared sandbox (log in info here <https://libraries.flo.org/members/FOLIO>). The dry run is a practice run of the final data load. We do this to make sure there aren't any snags we need to iron out before your actual go-live. Reloading your data will also give us a chance to correct any issues previously noted. We'll keep you posted on our progress daily and let you know when you can begin using the Stonehill sandbox again. Dry Run Schedule: - Week of April 14th - Stonehill College - Week of April 21st - New England Conservatory - Week of April 28th - MassArt, MFA, and Lesley University -- *Eliana Lima* *Projects Coordinator Librarian* 617-989-5026 eliana(a)flo.org My Zoom room: https://zoom.us/j/9300044265
