<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">We’re checking in with a bit of housekeeping before this new week gets underway. As Sierra extraction work finishes and we enter the next phase of the migration process, here’s what you can
expect over the next few weeks:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Ex Libris will start releasing migration and mapping forms to individual OPAL libraries through Basecamp as early as Tuesday, April
9. These will be released over the course of a few weeks, and we don’t know which libraries are scheduled for specific dates.
<b>We will be checking Basecamp daily and there is nothing you need to do with the forms until we contact you.<o:p></o:p></b></span></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Once your forms are available OhioNet staff will download them and fill them in. We will then send them to you for review and coordinate
a time to discuss details and answer questions before finalizing the final draft version due May 10. During this time, we will also pull your P2E data and submit it.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">After the forms are validated and submitted to Ex Libris, they will review them and make suggestions. We will be in touch if there are
any questions or changes to work through before submitting the final forms by May 24<sup>th</sup>.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Also, OhioLINK sent a survey to leads asking whether you intend to migrate to the new EBSCO EDS in August 2024. This is not required, and we anticipate most, if not all, OPAL libraries will
stay with the current version since OhioLINK has negotiated an option for libraries to continue using the classic EDS. Please go ahead and respond to the survey and let us know if you do decide to migrate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">If you can, please plan to attend the
<b>April 19 OPAL ILS Migration Meeting at 2 pm</b>. The discussion will focus on the forms and their various components as well as opportunities for consistency across our instances, guidance regarding E-Resources, and training needs. The meeting will be recorded.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
