Good progress with core search engine code. Pushed out to beta site. Going to leave UI as is since that might be revised.
Nothing needed at the moment. You can look at search results at this point; don't focus on UIs at this point. More an evaluation of elastic Search.

Martin would like to discuss UI things.
Mike will look at Search Within A Book then get back to Martin in new year.

Second instance of ElasticSearch for QA site.
Joel looking into how to do that.

Gemini triage
Update on management of incoming Gemini issues
Bianca will remain the first point of review
Then Carolyn will review
If it's not on fire and completely broken, it will most likely be put on hold until full text and transcriptions are complete.
Martin has also notified the Members

Susan
Batch article definition
Arnoldia - one specific thing does not scale well. Selecting a BHL creator id.

Workflow = with Arnoldia, and with many other Member publications, It's common for an author to write 10s of articles within a publication or even single volume. No option to select / assoc creator id once and then indicate and then indicate it should be applied to same instance of every creator name.

Susan will write up a ticket. Will request that the incoming tsv file that contains article metadata accept creator IDs in author name field. by doing this, can use openrefine, or other tool, to use tens of creators at once rather than individually.
