Steering Committee 202004 Minutes

1. 2020.02 release update

• Installer testing: Andreas tested the installer from 3.0.1 and it worked with no issue. Jeff commented that the installer started from 2.0 and it should be sequential. Testing on 3.0.1 should suffice. SC agreed we can go ahead and merge the installer. Matthias confirmed translation is ready to go. Rebecca confirmed documentation is done. SC decided to publish the release as soon as possible.

• Remaining action items:

  • Jeff: update footer and merge it
  • Jeff/Andreas: Merge from development to Master
  • Jeff: Publish the release on Github
  • Yan: announce the release on listserv
  • Eric/Texas A&M: update CORAL demo after the release

2. CORAL Web committee: Yan sent call for volunteers and received no response. SC will absorb web responsibilities. Two new roles are created: Web master - Andrews; Documentation manager - Rebecca.

3. ER&L CORAL User Group meeting update

• Rebecca, Scott, Eric and Yan were at the meeting. The meeting went well, and we had some good questions - public libraries showed interests in CORAL, some users integrated CORAL with LibGuide. Attendees contacted SC members after the conference.
• In the past we had CORAL User Group meeting at NASIG annual conference, but this year's conference is cancelled. There might be opportunity for online presentation this year. Yan will share more info with SC.

4. Other Updates:

• Andreas: Maria left the university, in the process of hiring a new ERL to fill Maria's position.
• Andy: SirsiDynix has been working on enhancements to the usage statistics module, in the design stage now and plan to complete the work by June. Andy will have more information to share with SC for input.
