[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Upcoming Evergreen for Academics meeting - Thursday, December 18 - Topic: Reserves

[Kathy Lussier]

Thanks Yamil!

I have added more detail to the agenda regarding the course reserves 
discussion at the meeting.

I would like to start with a general discussion on how current Evergreen 
sites are handling course reserves. Some of the questions we could 
discuss include:
- How are Evergreen libraries handling reserves?
- What are the pros and cons of your approach?
- Is there additional functionality that would make it easier?
- Are reserves still mostly needed for physical items are are you 
shifting more towards electronic use?

After the discussion, I would like to talk about a project here at 
MassLNC to formally move the Syrup course reserves system into 
Evergreen. We have some notes from a hack-a-way discussion about the 
project on the wiki at 
http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=scratchpad:course_reserves. I 
hope to have some more details available at the meeting and will be 
looking for feedback.

Kathy
