Should we have separate cataloging policy groups?

All

• People like the idea of having a single cataloging group once we have things sorted out. Probably in January have a single meeting.

• We can try a single meeting and if we need separate meetings we can do that.

• First joint meeting is Jan 25th 9:00 - 11:00

Name of two clusters

All

• We bat around some name options, but no conclusions

• People seem okay with MLN1 and MLN2

Authority Control

All

• MLN1 uses Marcive authority service.

• Lloyd sends the records to Marcive and loads the changes from them.

• MLN2 has stopped their contract with Marcive.

• They only ever used it twice.

• Up to date as of July 2022.

• We are not sure the current status with Marcive.

• They have been using the 907 field with the .b number as an indicator that the record has been to Marcive previously.

Link Maintenance

• Used to be done by Broomfield, but that person has left.

Headings Reports

• Not used at all.
