Don't Cancel Your Vacation Because of Worries About Migration! Clean Your Data with Ease, and Pack for the Beach!
Thursday October 8, 2026 1:00pm - 1:45pm CDT
Upper Reception Room
As we prepare for Alma, you may encounter obsolete tags, duplicate records, or other discrepancies that may impact migration. Updating the thousands of affected records manually would demand more staff time than any of us can afford. I will demonstrate techniques using our existing tools and the freely-available software program MarcEdit to identify affected records and update them efficiently.

Getting to Know the Alma Knowledge Base
Thursday October 8, 2026 2:30pm - 3:15pm CDT
Room 322
Join us for an introduction to the new Alma Knowledge Portal. When we first began the migration, we relied on the Ex Libris Knowledge Center to find documentation and training videos. In this session, we’ll explore the new Knowledge Portal and demonstrate some of its key features, including smart, sophisticated keyword searching, a modern user experience, and improved navigation. Come see how the new portal can make finding the information you need during & after the migration faster and easier.
