Discover how MOBIUS has revolutionized patron account management in FOLIO with an innovative automated process. In this session, we’ll explore how MOBIUS transitioned from Sierra’s scheduler software to FOLIO while maintaining compatibility with existing file formats. Instead of requiring libraries to overhaul their workflows, we developed a seamless solution that converts text files of patron data into JSON format, enabling integration with FOLIO’s mod-user-import API. Key Highlights: • Automated Integration: Our solution leverages the mod-user-import module to create and update user records daily. The script runs automatically at 1:00 AM, importing patron data for 50 libraries, with scalability for additional libraries as requested. • Comprehensive Web Interface: Empower help desk staff with tools to: o Monitor metrics and review import history. o Identify failed records and manage patron groups. o Configure email notifications for import outcomes. • Technical Implementation Insights: Learn about the use of the POST /user-import endpoint to streamline user data imports. • Detailed Metrics: See how MOBIUS provides robust metrics on user import outcomes, ensuring transparency and efficiency. Why Attend? This session demonstrates how automation can enhance efficiency while maintaining flexibility for participating libraries. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of how MOBIUS ensures FOLIO’s patron management processes remain robust, transparent, and user-friendly.
