NISO Voting Pools

-       NISO is in the process of forming voting pools.  Pool formation ends on Sunday, August 21, 2011.  They do not yet have a sufficient number of members in the NCIP voting pool to approve any revisions.  Lagace agreed to send a reminder note to each member’s NISO voting representative encouraging him or her to join the voting pool.  Non-NCIP members are not eligible to join a voting pool.

Vendor/Implementer Updates

-       Auto-Graphics: continue to test with TLC in New Jersey.  Testing there is nearly complete.

-       Polaris: continue testing at Melcat with III, have some interest from members of JerseyCat and will need to initiate testing with Auto-Graphics, and working to coordinate interoperability testing with OCLC.  Customers in Colorado are looking for successes in Michigan (Melcat) before moving forward.  Also beginning to work with Baker & Taylor.

-       Ex Libris: working at PALCI with Relais (Aleph) and beginning to test in the western U.S. (Voyager)

-       eXtensible Catalog: working to make the Drupal layer compatible with Version 2 of the NCIP Toolkit.

Membership Update

-       Peter Collins of BorrowDirect has been approved by the Discovery to Delivery Topic Committee as a voting member of the NCIP Standing Committee.

NCIP 2.02 Change Requests

-       Lagace is looking into a procedural issue that will determine whether a change request received two days after the August 1 deadline may be incorporated into the set to be reviewed at the Fall 2011 meeting.

Implementer Registry

-       Walsh clarified that the existing data in the current NCIP implementer registry is not considered “test” or “beta” information.  The data contained there is to be considered live and accurate.

-       New data may be added to the system even though Campbell is working on revisions to the infrastructure.  The data should persist through the update.

 

Fall Meeting

-       The Fall in-person meeting will be held October 12-13, 2011 at the EnvisionWare offices in Duluth, GA.  Walsh will post details for hotel(s), hotel shuttles, etc. to the NCIP website as those details become available.

Updated NCIP Website

-       Walsh reported on an effort to migrate the current NCIP website (at http://www.ncip.info) to a site hosted at Weebly.com.  The new site is accessible (http://ncip.weebly.com) and all feedback is welcome.  He would like to vote during the next call to change the ncip.info URL to resolve to this new site.

Inactive Members

-       3M, SirsiDynix, and VTLS have not met the criteria to remain active members of the NCIP Standing Committee.

-       Walsh, Dicus, and Lagace are to work toward formal notification of this change in status.

New Member Opportunities

-       Gray volunteered to send contact information for Baker & Taylor and the other storage locker vendor with whom Polaris is working so that they may be invited to join the NCIP SC.

Next Call

-       The next call is Thursday, September 15, 2011, at 1:00 pm Eastern.
