what happens if we don't arrive at 86 college minimum?:
Lisa Hatt
01:05:42
What if ongoing funding is not approved?
lgonzalez
01:07:46
will we be informed if our institution has completed/submitted all letters of intent
Lisa Hatt
01:07:54
and if we don't join now, are we forever locked out?
Laney College
01:08:29
Among the vanguard libraries, what library systems are the libraries currently using?
Amy Carbonaro
01:08:55
https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Leganto
Catherine Cox
01:09:48
I would appreciate some information on what the ongoing costs per institution would be in case the ongoing funding is not approved. It would help our business folks make decisions.
Shelley Blackman
01:10:18
The administration at my institution wants to know what kind of time resources we would need to commit to complete the transition. (I realize this would vary greatly depending on size of database and system used, but a ballpark number of hours would be helpful.)
cmaguire
01:11:16
We are in a consortium If we choose to do this, but still have a current contract till 2021, can we migrate with group and not use until our contract runs out? Or would we run two systems?
Brian
01:12:14
You can see the systems all colleges use on the FTS page of the ccl website: http://www.cclibrarians.org/directory/ftes
Shelley Blackman
01:12:19
My dean has a non-library background and is not clear about the benefits of going with this statewide buy... Is there a list of talking points we can use to help make the case that this would be beneficial?
Jeff Karlsen
01:13:01
Thank you Amy!
jgomez

Elena F
01:21:13
Does it interface with Colleague?
Christina Goff
01:21:52
How many libraries are a part of the largest consortium you work with?
lgonzalez
01:21:59
Will we get credentials to walk through this sample environment on our own?
Elena F
01:22:10
What about students paying fines online or with a pin machine?
Cecilia Hui
01:23:17
Can we login using our Banner credentials or using SAML? Thanks.
Heather Dodge (BCC)
01:25:13
Aquisitions: Does this tie in with our vendor? Brodart? Etc?
Cecilia Hui
01:25:42
May I know does Alma uses Java Runtime on the browser?
Cecilia Hui
01:30:17
For the single search box, can we search by course #, course ID or professor’s names?
michaelhommel
01:30:27
Does Alma work with Colleague? Answer Yes.
Christina Goff
01:32:43
How is Alma scoped? Would we see only information for our college?
Lisa Hatt
01:33:39
When you say "find a bibliographic record and attach an order to it", where is that record found?
Chabot Library
01:35:04
Can orders be imported in bulk from a vendor?
Heather Dodge (BCC)
01:35:06
Aquisition question: Where is the FUND information coming from? Does this mean we could somehow upload budgetary information from our college/district into Alma?
michaelhommel
01:35:14
# of libraries at our latest customer consortium: answer is circa 120 at BIBSYS (Norway)
michaelhommel
01:35:23
largest…not latest.
Heather Dodge (BCC)
01:36:19
Ditto to Chabot Library's question regarding bulk vendor orders.
michaelhommel
01:36:27
Credentials to sample Alma? Answer: Unfortunately, not an option.
Christina Goff
01:37:55
What does it mean that the "central office owns the record"?
Lisa Hatt
01:38:21
Who/what is "central office" in this case? is there an entity in that place for all colleges, or..?
Catherine Cox
01:39:20
The consortium's central office, I assume. Whoever pays or contracts.
Lisa Hatt
01:39:41
Is there such an entity for the entire college system, i mean? or is that expected to be on a smaller level?
Catherine Cox
01:40:47
Would the CCL consortium be able to do this for us?
Heather Dodge (BCC)
01:43:34
Can an "Institution" be a multiple college district? Or just an individual college?
Ran Gust
01:44:36
Professor of Mouseology?
Tony McGee
01:45:38
Is there a reserve module or how is a local reserve collection handled in Alma?
Christina Goff
01:45:51
If we have local notes in our current bibliographic records, what happens to those when we migrate?
Stacia
01:45:52
How is the Network Zone going to be populated?
Christina Goff
01:46:28
Are 910 fields displayed to patrons?
Las Positas Library
01:49:04
Do we have access to Marc records without having to use OCLC records?
Christina Goff
01:50:05
Who is importing records into the NZ?
Lisa Hatt
01:50:06
What level will these rules be set at?
Lisa Hatt
01:50:36
(in other words, who decides)
Christina Goff
01:51:36
Do all colleges have to agree on these rules, or is this part of the scoping?
caifunes
01:56:02
Student ID? names can be common
Laney College
01:56:24
Can we have a preferred name field in the patron record?
Palomar College
01:56:56
I'm not seeing any breadcrumbs in this demo indicating Fullfillment, Patron Records etc. The main menu list the options but in the secondary menu I see What displays is Licenses, the first entry explored via Acquisitions.
Christina Goff
01:58:52
Does that mean any patron in the system can request books from any of the other institutions?
Lisa Hatt
01:59:35
Fines and things stay with specific institutions, right?
Catherine Cox
01:59:58
Would we be able to restrict what types of items non-local patrons would be able to access? Our reserve books, for example, should not go out to students not from our own college.
Deborah
02:00:38
Are patron loads automated?
Christina Goff
02:00:40
Are patron permissions set by the individual college?
Lisa Hatt
02:04:19
Does it ask for an override password if you don't automatically have permission, or is the transaction just blocked?
Laney College
02:05:13
Any chance to see Reserve?
Deborah
02:05:49
+1 for Reserves demo
Lisa Hatt
02:05:54
+1
Cecilia Hui
02:06:13
Once the item is checked out, can we set it up so that the receipt will print out automatically?
Cecilia Hui
02:06:31
yes, +2 to see reserves demo, please
Lisa Hatt
02:07:39
So would we be seeing data from all the colleges in the system, or somehow in smaller groups, or..?
Amy Beadle
02:09:56
Hi all. The corsortial language is a little different than our system. As we go through the Vanguard phase this fall, we will be developing Systemwide best practices and policies. Those activities will be done with the LSP Work Groups and the LSP Governance Committee. There will be lots of communication and opportunities for input. Policies developed will rely heavily on the Vanguard experience. We will also be determine what Systemwide support will be necessary and how to best provide that.
Deborah
02:10:39
Will we get technical support from Ex Libris, or the CCC system?
michaelhommel
02:11:37
Time resources to expect for the transition? Answer: Library’s core project team members (this group’s composition is up to your library) should be prepared to spend 5-10 hours per week on the project during the implementation period.
Cecilia Hui
02:12:06
Would the annual IPED report be available to us than generating by individual library every year?
GCC
02:12:36
So that would be 5-10 hours per week, for a year? Dec-Jan?
Lisa Hatt
02:13:20
What's the engine under analytics? is it homegrown (authored by Ex Libris) or a third party product like SAP?
michaelhommel
02:13:42
Yes. 5-10 hours per week from Jan - Dec 2019
Mesa
02:14:11
Does Alma interface with PeopleSoft/Is Alma compatible with Campus Solutions. PeopleSoft and Campus Solutions is the sort of HR hub of all employee/student information
michaelhommel
02:14:59
Alma works with all common ERP systems…including PeopleSoft
Deborah
02:15:04
Is there an expectation that the core team members will be working during the summer?
GCC
02:15:06
Can we import existing reports? (from Voyager)
Catherine Cox
02:15:11
Can the graphs/charts be exported to Word or Excel on our desktop?
Brian
02:15:26
Can you cover the reserve module?
michaelhommel
02:15:29
Analytics engine = Oracle Business Intelligence
Cecilia Hui
02:15:39
can we schedule the reports and deliver to email?
michaelhommel
02:15:46
OBI is included in the Alma subscription
Pasadena City College
02:16:06
what is the time delay between alma and analytics?
Robin Babou
02:17:03
How does shared bib records work? We've done lots of customizations to contents and abstracts, will be lose that?
Lisa Hatt
02:17:25
Are there "reports" that perform actions on the database? e.g. to make global bib changes
GCC
02:17:50
Same question as Robin -- fields like subject headings and content notes -- can we retain those in the shared system?
Lisa Hatt
02:19:03
Can analytics do reporting based on bib data? e.g. give me a list of all records that have "foo" in a certain MARC field
Tracy Lam
02:19:23
Can we also see demo on ordering, receiving and setting up funds?
dmoore
02:20:17
Could you remind me what Leganto is?
Heather Dodge (BCC)
02:20:51
Where is the "Demand in other lists" data coming from?
Heather Dodge (BCC)
02:20:54
A bookstore?
Ran Gust
02:21:01
Where can we walk though a tour of Alma online? Any tutorials?
Laney College
02:21:35
What about one course with multiple sections/instructors?
Norman Buchwald
02:21:47
Leganto is like SIPX or Curriculum Builder. Reading list of electronic sources in library databases "appearing" in the LMS course via a reading list.
Catherine Cox
02:24:01
What about one item (book) being used by multiple instructors/courses?
Ran Gust
02:25:29
What listserv?
jgomez
02:25:39
how to get on listserv?
Dorothy Fuhrmadm
02:25:49
Where is the listserve how to get on it?
Ran Gust
02:25:49
Do you have all of our emails?
Trev Passage
02:25:59
thank you
GCC
02:26:00
Do records in the NZ replace our need to use OCLC connection? i.e, where do we retrieve the master bib records?
Citrus College
02:26:02
How does ExLibris comparer with OCLC's WMS' Knowledge Base?
Christina Goff
02:26:03
The listsev is the Deans and DIrectors group.
