Obvious goals to carry forward from last year:
By email, Craig expressed an interest in contributing to future stages of the marketing project. He also offered to assist in writing an article about the PMC, etc., if others wish to collaborate. He also mentioned some interest in “It Takes a Village,” but highlighted the need to narrow the scope of which part(s) we use.
The “future action items” list was reviewed to select additional items. We agreed to add these goals as well:
Investigating a VPAT and working on more It Takes a Village exercises are also possible activities, but no one volunteered to lead those efforts, so we decided not to formally set them as goals. Nothing prevents us from picking them up later in the year if we get ahead on completing the other goals.
Demian will next work on updating Koha documentation based on Mohan's input.
Work is still pending on MeSH, DoAJ, PubMed Central and NepJol “open data sources” pages. Mohan also plans to contribute documentation related to integrating SubjectsPlus (which recently had example XSLT import configs added to the project) and Moodle (which is still being researched).
Chris plans to have GitHub stats available for discussion by next meeting.
No news since last time.
The date and location of WOLFcon 2024 have been announced: September 24-26 at the University of London. There are also plans to hold a VuFind® event at University of Leipzig close to the WOLFcon dates. We should decide which of these is the most appropriate venue for the full online VuFind® Summit, and whether we want to set any formal practices for the Summit going forward. We will discuss further at the next meeting when we have more details available.
Some other possible items for the future:
None this month.
