- Sinolio - Sinopia-FOLIO
- 2021-09-03: Sinolio work cycle kick off meeting happened on Monday afternoon. If anyone would like info on the two work cycles, see:
(start on slide #26 for current work); feel free to follow-up with questions. There are essentially two concurrent work cycles: one on Sinopia (including but not limited to connecting to the Stanford ILS) and one on Sinolio. Michelle and Jeremy presented at FOLIO's MM-SIG on Thursday; feedback from group was very positive. MM-SIG will engage with BF to FOLIO Inventory mapping. Plan is to have push from Sinopia→FOLIO, work needs to track external source of data in FOLIO (cf. GBV work) and maybe support link out to Sinopia and block editing in FOLIO. Work cycle will run to Oct 15Widget Connector url https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1GFNXBZj-YTyxr8An-590kbieHzI8jvPoZp-I_gBR_iY/edit?usp=sharing

- OCLC Linked Data / Entities Advisory Group
- 2021-08-06 Huda has tried out UI and got API access. UI takeaway is that they aren't relying on the wikibase UI but still have same data at the moment. The search includes facet by type (e.g. work, person) and now have number of results and pagination. Individual person page shows both data and provenance (which adds clutter to page) but doesn't have links to work. Lynette notes that search results are not RDF, will require custom module in order to incorporate in QA, also a lack of context
- 2021-08-06 Question of what the OCLC business model of for-fee API access might mean. Would lookup via QA be allowed without a fee?
