00:15:03 Lesley Caldwell (Pierce College, she/her): It was Amy :)
00:15:50 Amy Herman: Anyone want to give odds of Elsevier buying EBSCO, next? :)
00:16:10 Lynn: I keep hearing ProQuest being advertised on NPR.
00:16:10 Nicole Longpre: Gosh I hope nowt. I dislike Elsevier

00:17:10 Amy Herman: Someone on Twitter gave a play by play of their telephone press conference. The line that struck me was, "We can touch every student in K through doctoral degrees everywhere." Kinda creepy...!
00:17:29 Nicole Longpre: Loyalty=no choice?
00:21:42 Amy Herman: The phone press conference referenced Ex Libris quite a bit so they know...
00:24:07 Kirsti Thomas (Seattle Colleges): Can you post a link to the thread Amy?

00:33:40 Nicole Longpre: We find that few folks have the ability to play a CD anymore
00:34:14 Lesley Caldwell (Pierce College, she/her): Yeah, I think I'd have to go to my car :)
00:34:27 Nicole Longpre: My car is Bluetooth only!
00:35:34 Kirsti Thomas (Seattle Colleges): I think Seattle Central picked up an external DVD/CD player (they're under $50) to check out to patrons who needed to play physical discs
00:35:55 Nicole Longpre: We have a few external ones- especially for MACs
00:42:43 Lesley Caldwell (Pierce College, she/her): @Kirsti, we added the weird 100 to try to find a workaround because the Alliance record had an Attribution line
00:44:45 Kirsti Thomas (Seattle Colleges): The line of names in Primo that appears right under the title looks like it's pulling the names from all the 700 fields. I'm guessing this because each name has "editor" after it, which is what shows up in all the 700 fields at the bottom of the record.
00:46:06 Lesley Caldwell (Pierce College, she/her): The Alliance record has the same 700 field:

00:47:02 Kirsti Thomas (Seattle Colleges): We can ask Leslie Lowrey what's going on behind the scenes.
00:47:44 Elena Bianco: What’s interesting is when you click on Jo-Ann Archibald, the results are mixed, some include the full name (apparently the print books) and some don’t. It’s inconsistent...
00:53:32 Kirsti Thomas (Seattle Colleges): Oops... Lesley Lowery. She's the Network Zone manager at Orbis Cascade.
00:55:03 Elena Bianco: Could you just create a normalization rule to change that one authors name when you import?
00:59:18 Elena Bianco: Thanks, all!
00:59:30 Lesley Caldwell (Pierce College, she/her): Thanks everyone! Kirsti, maybe we can talk more about reaching out the Lesley together later?
00:59:44 Kirsti Thomas (Seattle Colleges): SOunds good!
