Gov Pubs Meeting Minutes, 1-27-10

1. Home page re-design. Bottom two categories will be in their own blocks, reversing colors.
2. Special meeting on hearings. Peggy will contact Andrea Sevetson to present changes to Lexis’ Statistical and Academic databases, on Thursday Feb. 11, probably 1-3:00.
3. Jennie is adding 006/007 fields to combined print/electronic records.
4. Pat has been adding but suppressing web item records since Cataloging stopped splitting Gov records, because the display is confusing for patrons. (Suppressed items still perform facetting/limiting and bib location functions. Deb will check with Cataloging about their practices and opinions.
5. Some electronic-only bib records have been suppressed for some reason at some point in time. If the links are completely dead, we will just delete the bib, but should not be suppressing.
6. Linda and Sheila have chosen a label that will work in a Demco labeler. Linda will write up the purchase proposal.
7. Peggy: Systems wants us to report printer problems to them as well as to ITS. Peggy will check with Systems to see if they can remove a report from the queue if they’ve fixed it, so ITS won’t come as well.
Archives may have some National Archives microfilm in their Omer Stewart collection, especially BIA sets.
Archives will take our Rocky Flats documents (except for DOE/NTIS).
