Next-Generation Technical Services Update: August 2011

The NGTS Management Team has held kickoff conference calls with Power of Three groups (POTs) 2 through 7 to review their charges and provide an overview of the interdependencies between groups. Charges have been revised and re-posted to the SOPAG website (http://libraries.universityofcalifornia.edu/sopag/ngts_pots.html). We fully expect the charges for each of these groups will continue to be refined as work proceeds.

The POTs are currently developing high-level task lists and timelines as well as identifying what lightning teams will be needed. These will be submitted to the Management Team in early September. Once they have been reviewed, an overall implementation timeline will be shared with the UC Libraries community.
