Special Interest Groups (SIGS) SIGs are officially sanctioned by the FOLIO/OLE Product Council and provide forums for FOLIO participants to form consensus on FOLIO functionality through the creation of documents, reactions to prototypes, and code snippets. They allow users to exchange ideas, develop shared goals for the FOLIO project, and research and develop new interchange standards with widely used software. •Metadata Management •Laura Wright – Convener •Accessibility •Debbie Hamrick – Convener •Resource Management •Nicole Trujillo, Steve Brown, and others

Why FOLIO? cost/limitations of commercially available tools micro-services, adaptability moving beyond MARC create solutions instead of workarounds opportunity to examine our needs
Development begins with the user interface. Working groups Instances, Holdings, and Items Advanced Searching Analytics and Boundwiths MARCcat Working with format-specific bibliographic, holdings, and authority metadata. UX-centered Development begins with the user interface. Working groups (cont.) Container Records Tags ERM integration
“Inventory is the FOLIO app where bibliographic information from a variety of sources can be presented in a uniform, abstracted form for management of the collection regardless of the format or content rules used to describe a resource.” (FOLIO Inventory: a working definition Metadata Management SIG)
Inventory Where users can manage and maintain local metadata FUNCTION DATA MODEL INFRASTRUCTURE Where users can manage and maintain local metadata Influenced by BIBFRAME; introduces native FOLIO data format Inventory is a hub for FOLIO and cataloging apps
Initial Data Modeli Inspired by the BIBFRAME 2 conceptual model and the Dublin Core (DC) Elements Model has evolved as we outline and review use cases and requirements
FOLIO’s current data model Inventory Import app Container FOLIO Apps Export app Instance Generic Bibliographic Storage Holdings MARCCat App Item
Container records Hierarchical (parent/child) Collect other Inventory records together for management purposes Container level metadata for describing a package, subscription, or membership Records can be “in” more than one container
