b. Tenn-Share Databases - sent spreadsheet to Lyrasis; has there been any vendor reaction? no response yet

c. Other offers (Murals & eHREF) - Do we get new offers emails when they come? They should come to the collections contacts. 

 

II. FoKAL Logo (Did I send the results to everyone? I thought I did but I don't see them in my sent box.)
