    • ACTION: Lynette needs to put together survey for cataloger user stories for PCC feedback and ranking by working group. 

      • Started.  Requested feedback on prioritization wording, but received no comments.

        Code Block

        EXAMPLE: As a cataloger, I want to … a user story will go here… * REQUIRED - The system is unusable without the feature represented in the user story * HIGH USE - The feature represented by the user story would be used a lot. * NICE TO HAVE - The feature represented by the user story would be helpful, but the system is useful without it. * DON’T NEED - I do not expect to use the feature represented by the user story.

• • OCLC Linked Data / Entities Advisory Group
    • OCLC has described minimal viable entities and a number of small vocabs – are these new "standards" that we will have to engage with to ensure alignment?
  • PCC Sinopia Profiles Working group
    
    • 2020-09-18 - Still going through large spreadsheet comparing Sinopia profiles with BSR and CSR, close to having a comparison, will be part of report to POCO, still on target to complete in October2020-10-02 - Submitted interim report yesterday. Feedback requested before deciding on a few directions and working to stay compatible with LC work. Some discussion of how to align with SHARE-VDE data which uses a rather different profile. Committee is supposed to wrap by the end of October
    • 2020-10-09 Almost done, questions about role of item template which doesn't fall within PCC scope
  • PCC Task Group on Non-RDA Entities
    • 2020-09-11 - Preliminary report went to POCO suggesting a small vocabulary of entity types, discussion about how to host/implement
    2020-09-25 Now have a short list if possibilities and close to decision
    • 2020-10-02 Have definitions of short lists, now creating MARC examples. Interest is working the German national library on alignment – perhaps influence that and then adopt instead of creating a new list2020-10-09 Discussions of how reconcile RDA list with Non-RDA entities. Possible effects on id.loc.gov
