<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Greetings!</b> I hope you all are getting a chance to dig into your collection data in GreenGlass! I am following up on a few items from our recent meetings with OCLC, both the full-group meeting and the training for new MI-SPI libraries.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><b>MI-SPI 2.0 Scope</b>. There was some question about the exact scope of the project. This has not changed from the initial MI-SPI project and will be added into GreenGlass by OCLC
for easy access. <o:p></o:p></li><ul style="margin-top:0in" type="circle">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Monographs only, including multi-volume sets.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">No serials.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">No special collections.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">No government documents, reference books or reserve books.
<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><b>Remediation work.</b> As you’ll recall, OCLC encouraged all libraries to the remediation lists provided to each library in GreenGlass. You’ll see a link to remediation when you
log into the system (right hand side). Please note that any changes made do not impact your data set. The recommendations are made to help libraries “to improve the correctness of your records, the completeness of your WorldCat holdings, and/or the efficacy
of your collection.”<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><b>Retention Models.</b> We are also asking all libraries to experiment with group retention models. The Steering Committee met this week and will meet again next week to build retention
models for the group to review. If you have thoughts, ideas or suggestions, please share with me and I will forward to the Steering Committee.
<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><b>Committees.</b> If you are on one of the committees (Collection Data & Analysis and Resource Sharing and Metadata) formed earlier on in the MI-SPI 2.0 process, please know the Steering
Committee will be touching base with members of the two committees soon. <br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><b>GreenGlass Tutorials.</b> OCLC has created a variety of tutorials to assist GreenGlass users. You’ll find them here,
