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:

If you would like to review the questions before beginning the survey,
please see the following PDF:

Many thanks,

Cristina

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!

Cristina

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:

please see the following PDF:

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.
