Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Please take our survey! (New EG Reports Interface)
Hi, all, Tomorrow is the last day to participate in the PINES survey regarding the development of a new Evergreen reports interface. We want your input! Recognizing the limitations of the survey (as expressed in my previous e-mail below), we hope as many folks as possible will participate in the survey. In particular, please forward the survey to those library directors and front-line staff who are not on this list. A summary of the survey data from the Evergreen community will be shared with the Evergreen Reports Interest Group so as a group we can consider how to move forward with the reporting needs of the various types of Evergreen libraries. Here's the link to the survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BQKTGRX http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BQKTGRX If you would like to review the questions before beginning the survey, please see the following PDF: http://pines.georgialibraries.org/files/EG%20New%20Reports%20Interface%20Su rvey.pdf http://pines.georgialibraries.org/files/EG%20New%20Reports%20Interface%20Sur vey.pdf Any inquiries about this project, can be sent to: mailto:pines-reports...@list.georgialibraries.org pines-reports...@list.georgialibraries.org Many thanks, Cristina -- Cristina Hernandez Trotter Head of Reference Dept. and Heritage Center Oconee Regional Library System 801 Bellevue Ave. Dublin, GA 31021 478-272-5710 (phone) 478-272-0524 (fax) http://www.ocrl.org/ www.ocrl.org From: chtrot...@ocrl.org [mailto:chtrot...@ocrl.org] Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 3:08 PM To: 'Evergreen Discussion Group' Subject: RE: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Please take our survey! (New EG Reports Interface) Hello, all, Yikes! In copying over our original PINES-specific survey, I neglected to change some of the wording. My apologies. So wherever you see IntraPINES holds, % of PINES totals, etc., please just substitute PINES with your consortium/system name as you read. Unfortunately, I cannot edit the wording once the survey has started. We created this survey specifically for the PINES consortium, but we thought it useful to get as much input as possible from the EG community before we finalize development requirements for this project. Admittedly, the only question we added/changed for the EG-community version was about library type. We ask anyone interested to please complete the survey with awareness of the survey's limitations. Your input is greatly appreciated. Thanks to all who have already completed the survey thus far!

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Please take our survey! (New EG Reports Interface)
Hello, everyone, The PINES Reports Working Group is working on requirements for a new reports interface for Evergreen. We hope to streamline and simplify the process for running basic daily reports so that front-line staff and directors can get the information they need quickly and independently of technical staff. (The new interface will not recreate or replace the existing reports interface.) Now we need your help! Please help us identify what information is most needed by front-line staff and directors by completing the following 15-20 minute survey by Friday, March 8th: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BQKTGRX If you would like to review the questions before beginning the survey, please see the following PDF: http://pines.georgialibraries.org/files/EG%20New%20Reports%20Interface%20Sur vey.pdf Any inquiries about this project, can be sent to: mailto:pines-reports...@list.georgialibraries.org pines-reports...@list.georgialibraries.org Many thanks, Cristina -- Cristina Hernandez Trotter Head of Reference Dept. and Heritage Center Oconee Regional Library System 801 Bellevue Ave. Dublin, GA 31021 478-272-5710 (phone) 478-272-0524 (fax) http://www.ocrl.org/ www.ocrl.org

A number of the things in that survey appear to be PINES-specific and not applicable to the community at large. This includes things such as legacy stat cat information, collection language implications (primarily english with a large spanish subset, it looks like), and mention of things like IntraPINES. Overall I think the survey needs to be re-worked from a more neutral standpoint if the community is supposed to be involved.
