A big thank you to everyone who has been involved in meeting  Vinny Ahluwalia (Business Analyst) to help us compile a list of requirements for a new library system. Your contributions have been valuable and we very much appreciate the effort and time you have taken to be involved.

We are now doing some fine tuning on the list which includes looking at some of the requirements Massey identified when they were doing a similar exercise. We expect to share this by Tuesday next week.

Our next task is to collect any further feedback or comments and to prioritise the list of over 200 requirements identified, particularly to identify which ones are key (must haves).   We will set aside next Thursday 19th January in the Totara meeting room (PJH 520) to do this.

I will be in touch shortly with the subject matter experts who have participated so far but this is also a general invite to anyone interested.

We will structure the day by category (for example acquisitions, invoicing, catalogue, electronic resources management, circulation, requesting, fines and charges etc) so you can pick and choose which times/areas you are interested in/would like to come along to, and just turn up on the day.

I will be in touch again early next week with more information.
