I renamed the "external to library" to "stats external to library". I was thinking that tab should continue to represent reports, but reports that are required by external agencies rather than used internally. All of the other tabs at that point were centered on a SIG and were, I though, more oriented toward internal use. But they were still reports of some kind.

The import_export tab, again to my thinking, had more to do with data exports for purposes other than reporting, such as the two I included for TAMU: 1) the need to be able to export a complete MARC record when submitting a digitized item to Hathitrust; 2) the need to export full MARC bib and authority records for ongoing authority control purposes. Those are more operational than reporting, but perhaps that's a distinction without a difference.

Thanks Anne. Let’s take a minute and clarify the difference between “import/export” and “external to library”. I’m not sure of the distinction.

 

A couple of membership changes: Zao Liu will not be joining us. Doreen Herold from Lehigh U will be with us in June. I adjusted the Functional Expert list. Can you make updates to the mailing list?

 

Thanks for your help on this.

I have added an import_export tab at the beginning of the spreadsheet. Since it's new, that'll make it easier to find. I have verified that each tab has a "Purpose" column; I modified the Agency requirement column on the 'external to library" tab to read "Agency requirement/Purpose".
