SERUG Members, Good Morning all. I want to offer my apologies for the long silence. I have been out of the office quite a bit between late August and early October dealing with multiple family crises but am now ready to get the momentum going again with this group. I hope all you fared well during the past two major storms. I have two topics that I want to follow-up on from our last meeting in July, and a request for your consideration to a third topic. * At the July meeting, we mentioned having quarterly meetings, which would've meant an October meeting. October is out, but I've put together a Doodle poll with dates between November 4 - 20, either at 11am or 2pm ET. 1. Please try to complete the poll by COB on Thursday, Oct 31 so that I can schedule the meeting. Below is a link to the poll. Doodle Poll for November Meeting<https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eg60Ajkd/vote> * Next, I've put together a short, 7 question survey (most with multiple choice responses) so that we can learn more about each other such as, any other ExLibris/Clarivate products used, e.g. Rapido, Rialto; when you migrated to Alma/Primo; and if you are interested in sharing resources with SERUG members. Please try to complete the survey by Monday, Nov 3rd. I'll share the results at the meeting. * Fill out the survey as a representative of either your individual library or consortia office, if applicable.

Please take a look at it and if you feel that it's worthwhile, consider adding your vote to it. Note: In the November 2024 Release of New Features, 9 of them came from Idea Exchange. https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/308173-alma/suggestions/48983675-make...
