Hello all,
Based on my email poll last week, the week that would work best for all libraries was March 31st - April 4th. Now we need to decide which time slots will work the best. We'll be breaking up the training into 3 hour chunks with plenty of time for hands-on exercises and questions. All training sessions are recorded.
*Training Doodle: *https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/aKz3oxRe
Please respond to this Doodle by the end of next week, *Friday, March 14th* .
Basic training outline:
- Day 1 - FOLIO basics, Inventory and VuFind searching and record structure - Day 2 - Users app, circulation apps, requesting (in FOLIO and VuFind) - Day 3 - Fees/fines, courses/course reserves, reporting & statistics - Day 4 - Cataloging (Inventory app), Bulk Edit app, Data Import/Export apps, MARCAuthority - Day 5 - ERM and Acquisitions
In addition to the week long Zoom training, FLO provides a series of asynchronous training units on our members' website for you to go through at any time. The units are split up based on app/focus area and you're welcome to jump around to whichever ones are most helpful for your position. I recommend going through this training prior to attending the "live" training, as time permits.

Hi Eliana.
For the Doodle poll, shall I forward to all MassArt folks and ask them to only vote for times on the days that directly apply to them? E.g. Cataloging folks would only weigh in on March 31 and April 3 times.

Hi Rachel,
That makes sense to me. Every library approaches things differently, some send all staff to all days and some just have staff attend days that are relevant to them. Both are valid options. It might remove some noise from the responses if people only respond for days they actually plan on going to so I appreciate you asking.
