CDI
The CDI will go live on Sunday, May 24. Most campuses are not doing any significant promotion at this point.  While there will be improvements with the CDI there are still some concerns about functionality.  It was noted that any "toggle" option for CDI activation might take at least two days to reflect in Primo.  Once everyone goes live there will be a lot more testing and some more issues may come to light. 

Our remote world of discovery - how is everything? Problems, solutions, questions, suggestions?
A few libraries have turned on direct linking and have added the chat service to Primo.  Others are reviewing logs files and analytics to see if user behaviour has changed.  

Plans for the working group: membership, SUNY communities of practice idea
Some member's terms are expiring next month.  Discussion about whether we need to continue the WG model or move towards the "community of practice" model and expand access and participation in the committee.   It was suggested that we review our charge to see if it is still relevant. If the WG doesn't still have a stated mission with stated outcomes and goals then the model may no longer be working.  Even if the WG is opened up for more participation we will still need a core group to organize meetings, etc.  Most agreed that having some sort of group in SUNY was a valuable resource.
