Defining Use Cases for Federating Library Services

["T. Howell" <>]

Hello All,

It seems that we have settled on 15:00 EDT [14:00 CDT] for our next three
weekly meetings of the Use Case Subgroup. The first telephone conference of
which will occur this Friday, May 22nd. My apologies to Heather and John who
are not able to make that time this week. However, if you would like to
submit any of your thoughts via this mailing list prior to the call the rest
of the group can easily discuss them during the call.

In terms of getting some pre-call work done we could determine what specific
goals we'd like to achieve, for instance creating useful definitions
(definition sets) such as defining the set of various potential
authenticating user groups (such as walk-ins, faculty, students, et cetera).
Essentially, this is a request for some brainstorming prior to our Friday
discussion to help facilitate conversation.

Thanks everyone for volunteering to help with this, the assistance is
greatly appreciated.


Sincerely;
Thomas Howell.
