Minutes

I. Introductions and review of group's work so far

II. Reports update from Laney-

Refactor done by Sarah this summer should make it easier to add new canned reports. We need to figure out to what extent we need to add more canned reports when, hopefully, the custom reports option will add more capability for designing institution-specific reports.

It looks like there are two main reports for each record type
1. all records with basic information
2. all records with basic information and the main sub records associated with the record type

The rest of the reports seem to contain records with specific criteria, like restricted resources and the addition of linked records.
