Item description
Action
1. Minutes of last meeting
1.1
PN reported that colleagues at Cranfield are considering installing
RAPTOR but dependent on the IT department. Given their busy
work schedule this can’t be progressed quickly. Simon Bevan is
pursuing RAPTOR with the IT department.
1.2
AC has started to compile a list of RAPTOR users (who are also
JUSP users) following feedback from the JUSPlibraries list. AC will
update the list and pass to RS/PS to post on the RAPTOR-JUse
wiki.
AC
1.3
Manchester isn’t currently a RAPTOR user and aiming to install the
software shortly. JL put PS and RS in touch with Andy Land recently.
They will follow up with Andy this week.
PS, RS
2. Options analysis and development of linkage
2.1
A basic API is available and is sufficient for Cardiff purposes. PS and
RS will complete work to provide access to data in the UI. The
implementation will be made available on a development server for
institutional testers initially. RS and PS will provide logins for
institutional testers to review data, and will inform AC and PD once
content is available for evaluation purposes.
PS, RS
3. Evaluation
3.1
AC and PD aim to liaise with institutional testers and collect
feedback during w/c 10.12.12
AC, PD
3.2
Initial evaluation will concentrate on collecting feedback from testers
at the three test institutions (Manchester, Cardiff and Kent).
Evaluation will be extended to a wider group during the second
phase evaluation in March and April 2013.
PD, AC
4. Dissemination
4.1
A brief update on RAPTOR-JUse progress will be communicated via
the JUSP libraries newsletter at the end of December. The article will
provide an opportunity to report the results of the initial evaluation
activities.
AC, PD,
JL
PS and RS continue to disseminate information about the project at
workshops and events.
5. AOB
5.1
The notes provided by Chris Brown from the AIM meeting have a
JL
couple of inaccuracies in relation to JUSP/RAPTOR-JUse. The notes
were intended for personal use and weren’t circulated amongst the
group but JL will request amendments given that they are likely to
form the basis of a blog post shortly.
Date of next meeting: 18th December 2012
