Working with our partners
• Conceptual design phase • Testing of Partner Releases • Migration of data • Workflows • User interface design • Terminology • Cloud environment
![Page 5: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Development Partner Releases (“PRs”)
- PR represents a working (but not full) system • End-to-end workflow orientation
- Migration of matching customer data and configuration
- 3 months of testing allows Partners to • Verify migrated data • Test functionality exposing staff to new system
while using real data to ensure real-life scenarios • Provide useful feedback and positively affect
product functionality well before general release

Collaboration on Reporting
• BC requirements for Alma • Better reporting tools within Alma
- With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside of Aleph/ARC, to meet local needs
• Ability to extract all of our Alma data into data warehouse
- Local warehouse includes additional local data sources (e.g., student class enrollment information from student information system)
- Makes data mashups possible

Alma Reporting – Collaboration
• Ex Libris presented the concept of Analytics • Focus on Acquisition • Reviewed and analyzed examples created by Ex
Libris • Brainstormed about the type of analytics Boston
College wish to have

Collaboration on Course Reserves
• BC requirements for Alma • support for CR digitization workflows
• currently workflows are managed manually, outside of Aleph
• discovery via Primo desirable, but bigger interest is in ability to create CR services that can be embedded elsewhere (eg, LMS, mobile interface.

Alma – Course Reserve API
• Integrate the Alma supplied reading list citations, and their status, into the Course Management System UI
• Provide a link from the Course Management System to view
the services the library can offer for a given citation
• Services the library may supply include: • Physical copies available at various locations, under
different loan Terms of Use • Digital copies, either created for the course, or previously
existing in the library's inventory • Accessible electronic links, licensed by the library either for
general use, or for specific use of the course students.

Data Migration
(A key component of the preparation for testing) Partners test Alma using their own data, including:
• Mapping of ILS data to the Alma structure • “Rules” that apply to data as migrated • 4 main categories
1. Inventory information 2. Patron information 3. Funds information 4. Circulation Desk and Fulfillment Unit
organizational relationships
![Page 26: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
An Example: Migrating Inventory Information
50,000 bib records for PR1 and full file for PR2 and beyond
• Converted Voyager locations to Alma locations • Voyager: 3 locations for an item:
• Holdings location (MFHD 852) • Permanent location (Item record) • Temporary location (item record)
• Alma: 2 locations for an item: • Permanent physical location (Alma MARC
holdings record); • Temporary location (item record)

One of our challenges
Material Type Mapping • Difficulties due to inconsistent use of material
types • Couldn’t use GMD or depend on codes from
the item record • We used a table of codes from the bib record
to help determine material type (ex: print, microform, online)
• Cataloger worked with Ex Libris staff to develop the conversion table
![Page 28: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Migrating Funds Data
Funds Information • Voyager – hierarchical structure
• Ledgers linked to fiscal periods • Three types of funds: Summary funds;
Allocated funds; Reporting funds • Alma
• Two types of funds: Summary funds; Allocated funds

Longer-term Preparation for Full Implementation
• Looking ahead to the new environment: what will be possible?
• Reviewing existing processes • Standardization (e.g., Circulation policies) • Optimizing workflows and staff resources • Examining roles and responsibilities
• Database cleanup • Bib records • Authorities processing • Ledgers, orders, invoices

Most Important: Rethinking Our Approach
• A new model • Community Zone / Local Zone • Control vs. Collaboration • Value to users

Impact of the Development Partners
• Staff searching • Vendor and vendor account structure • Labels, wording and screen layout • EOD import profiles • Refinements to metadata editor • Navigation and record linkages • User roles and permissions
![Page 46: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Opening Screen
PR1 & PR2
PR3
• Had to drill down to find your work space
• Looked like what it was, a prototype
• Task orientated based on roles
• Persistent searching at top of screen
• Ability to add widgets to aid in work

Screen Layout and Usage
• Focus today on screen layout and functionality • Staff at Princeton looked at all aspects of
usability • The same principles can be applied to other
screens such as Item Editor • Reduce number of clicks / scrolling • Reorder data elements • Critically analyze screen real estate
![Page 50: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Why is this analysis important?
• Not all data is loaded • Manual record manipulation will always exist • A ‘small’ task that is hard to complete is costly
in terms of time and staff frustration • Think of the staff who do a particular task • Alma is focusing on improved workflows so the
work has to flow
![Page 51: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
PR3 example
• Following two screen shots are a PO line item created for Ex orbe religionum
• Line created manually from the Bib record • Vendor account selected • Price entered • Fund selected

What is wrong with this picture?
• Too much bibliographic & vendor account information visible
• Bibliographic data could be changed • Order of data is not optimal: funding is right at
the end, copy and location is at the top • Too much information by default, have
collapsible sections • Labels take up too much room
![Page 55: Carmit Marcus Paul Bracke From the Partners’ Perspective · •BC requirements for Alma •Better reporting tools within Alma - With Aleph, we’ve had to create many reports outside](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071104/5fddfca8885e810bec2fe7fe/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
