Taipei, June 2006
Verde’s approach to Workflow
Workflow Engine
(task manager)
Alerts and E-mail
Roles assigned and tasks allowed
15
Taipei, June 2006
Roles, Profiles, and Permissions
Roles: High Level functions that you are assigned (License Manager, Webmaster, Acq. processing). Used by Workflow Manager to identify appropriate staff to notify
Permissions: Specific tasks/duties that you have permission to perform (assigned by the administrator). Note: by default there is a direct relationship between ROLES and PERMISSIONS but the library can modify the default to create its on set of relationships.
Profiles: Groups of permissions (arbitrarily) bunched together and used by administrator to save time
16
Taipei, June 2006
Workflows and tasks
Verde ships with three workflowsAcquisitionsLicensingRenewal/Review
Each workflow has several tasks pre-defined
All workflows and tasks can be configured by the customer
17
Taipei, June 2006
Workflows and tasks
Tasks can be internal or external to VerdeInternal: complete acquisitions record and approve itExternal: send copy of license to Attorney
Libraries can add up to 10 additional tasks for each workflow
Additional default workflows will be added as libraries identify their needs
Tasks are “accepted” by staff, and then marked as “completed”; end of one task triggers notification that next task is ready to be fulfilled
18
Taipei, June 2006
Copy and Paste Attribute Data
From one level to another (Interface to Package or Constituent)
From one Package to another
One copy/paste per attribute
*Most useful* for license attribute
Does not carry dates across copy/paste
19
Taipei, June 2006
New record wizard
Fast, prompted method of adding new local records to Verde KnowledgeBase
Replaces previous 12-13 step process
Result of wizard:New work record(s): package and interfaceNew interface e-product recordNew package e-product recordAll linked together as a logical group
20
Taipei, June 2006
Upload an attachment to the license
Any level e-product record
Multiple documents can be stored per record
.DOC, .XLS, .PDF and similar file types automatically open (depends on your system)
Stored as part of Unix/Linux file system
21
Taipei, June 2006
Search/retrieval changes
Single instance: Local or Global checkbox
Multi-instance: One, Some, All, +/- Global
New column displays holdings
Consortium navigation
22
Taipei, June 2006
Choose which instances to search
23
Taipei, June 2006
Multiple instances retrieved
24
Taipei, June 2006
Breach and incident logs
25
Taipei, June 2006
Breaches and Incidents
Expansion of DLF specificationCan be attached to any level of recordCollects what the problem was, timestamp, responsible person, disposition, and notes
Next step: allowing breach/incident log entry to automatically create email to vendor
26
Taipei, June 2006
Other changes in version 2
Improved/enhanced batch job and report schedulerAdditional reports, including consortiumVarious invisible infrastructural changes
Better sharing with SFXMore efficient indexing and updating on large setsMinor menu and screen changes for ergonomic reasons
27
Taipei, June 2006
Consortial Models
28
Taipei, June 2006
Parallel Consortium Model
1 2 3 4 5
29
Taipei, June 2006
Parallel Model
Share the same server(s)Share the same Oracle installation
But …Each instance has its own configurations, users, etc.Secure ‘walls’ between instancesAlmost complete autonomy if desiredMay allow read-only access if desired“Good fences make good neighbors”
30
Taipei, June 2006
Top-down model (central authority)
1 2 3 4 5
Central management of some sort
31
Taipei, June 2006
Top-down management
Many different flavors
Central authority can bepurchasing agent (and bill for costs)funding agentHardware/software hostDatabase quality – consistency managerVarious combinations of the above
32
Taipei, June 2006
Top down model
Central instance that does somethingMultiple individual instancesDepending on flavor, the individual instances may show
Only what the specific instance has bought for itselfEverything bought by Central on behalf of the individual instance
33
Taipei, June 2006
Hybrid top down model
1 2 3 4 5
Central management of some sort
6A
6B
6C
34
Taipei, June 2006
Hybrid top down or hybrid parallel
Central may directly manage certain smaller libraries or subsets of institutions
Larger libraries act as normal top down or parallel entities
35
Taipei, June 2006
No two consortia are alike !!!
Acquisitions and Purchasing rolesMessaging and availability to publicCost sharing formulasRole and influence of central authoritySFX and Metalib use and structureEtc.
Verde’s goal: build in configurability and flexibility within certain basic frameworks.
36
Taipei, June 2006
Why choose one model over another?
Service delivery - identity of library versus identity of consortiumManagement needs (reporting, fiscal)Purchasing model; financial support from central authorityAtmospherics – do consortial members get along?Atmospherics 2 - do the libraries’ parent institutions prefer individual attention and recognition?
37
Taipei, June 2006
Why choose? (2)
Economics – cost of ERM installation as individuals versus as consortium
Existing software (SFX, for example) model
38
Taipei, June 2006
Verde version 2 Consortial Features
In top-down modelMerged Master database of all holdings, all instancesAbility to search one, all, or any combination of instances, + or – GKB, in one operationAbility to see merged (automatically deduplicated) results labeled with instance(s) that own specific e-journalsAbility to jump from one instance’s holdings to another without having to re-execute searchVarious navigational short-cuts (breadcrumbs, filters, etc.)
