Reports Working Group (2012-2015)

Reports Working Group Mission Statement

The PINES Team and Reports Working Group will gather requirements for the design of a new reports interface that streamlines and simplifies the process for running basic daily reports so that front-line staff and directors can run a report independently of technical library staff. Emerald Data Networks will design and produce the new interface for use with the Evergreen software, version 2.?

The project mission will be considered complete when users such as front-line library staff or directors can run a report independently of technical library staff.

The project supports library users who do not have in depth knowledge of database structures but who need to extract statistical data from the PINES database. The new interface will not recreate or replace the existing reports interface but provide easy access to the most frequently used data elements.

Status

The "PINES Quick Reports" interface went live over Labor Day Weekend, September 2015.
