The group has ongoing responsibilities to implement the licenses app and to assist other working groups with the main Aleph migration. The group has overlap with other working groups and Five College committees and collaborates on issues relating to discovery and access of eResources.
FERM Scope
The work of this group will primarily center around the following FOLIO apps: Licenses, Agreements, eHoldings, eUsage, and Organizations. Additionally this group will work with the Acquisitions and Inventory working groups on cross-app functionality in FOLIO as well as the Five College Discovery and User Experience committees to ensure optimal user experience for FOLIO inventory records.
As an ongoing Five College working group, FERM also provides a space to collaboratively explore new workflows in FOLIO and other management systems, and to provide peer support for systems and eResource management.
