I picked up Wolfie‘s cousin at the airport. He was heading to Hamburg so let’s fly together. #wolfcon24
Oof, lotta technical problems marred that last presentation ... Anyway, that's it for #WOLFcon24 this year!

Nate Trail from the Library of Congress: "We're very large, we have a lot of non-Latin scripts, and we want to change the base model from MARC to BIBFrame ... So it's gonna be a challenge moving forward!"

#WOLFcon24

Next up ... "MARC My Words: Navigating the BIBFrame Frontier"

#WOLFcon24

VuFind's out-of-the-box configuration is very bare bones, so with cataloger involvement, many more MARC fields are being displayed to the public compared to the original launch

#WOLFcon24

Established the Catalog Development Advisory Working Group (aka "C-DAWG") to work with the back-end development team (the "public catalog" or "PUBCAT") and develop team priorities for VuFind functionality and display

#WOLFcon24

MSU have two full-time staff members working in the Authorities Management unit ("They're just the best, they're really great at their jobs!")

#WOLFcon24

"In Sierra, catalogers could instantly view their record in the public facing catalog ... But the lag time [in FOLIO] does mean less immediate checking of materials, and it's resulted in a reduced awareness of our MARC field displays. And when problems are noticed, changing how things are displayed is handled outside of technical services."
