Ruth,

My intention was to say that we'll discuss it at the meeting, which we will. With the meeting in thirty minutes I think we can figure it out a bit better there than by email.

I do want to push back a little on this. The Evergreen Project doesn't develop the software. It supports the community that develops the software.

I would love it if we could smooth out the first couple of lines of the mission:
The Evergreen Project develops an open source integrated library system. The Evergreen software is used by libraries [...]

Thanks for letting us nitpick this again, Rogan!

Andrea and Ruth caught most of the things I did, so I won't repeat, other than to +1 those!

The only other things I had were for the New Seeds list, and there are a few:

1. Some libraries new to consortia are labeled as such and others aren't. That should be consistent. Related, some of the entries have just the city and state code, some have the consortium name and US but no state, and some have the consortium name, state spelled out, and US. That should also be consistent. Missing consortium info are: Port Carbon Public Library (SPARK), all the NC community colleges except Cape Fear (NCCCE), all the MA libraries (CW MARS).

2. Since all but one library on that list is a new member of a consortium, would it be easier to just say "SPARK, PA" [or whatever consistent thing we decide on] and list the 3 libraries under; same with Missouri Evergreen, Evergreen Indiana, NCCCE, and CW MARS? I'm not married to this idea--just a thought. If we're not doing that, we at least group them together, like Ruth said--or if not group them but maybe alphabetize them. The order is kinda weird as-is.

3. The only standalone on the list is Cape Fear Community College. And it just has "North Carolina" rather than Willmington, NC [or whatever consistent thing we decide on].

4. Western Piedmont should be Western Piedmont Community College

Thanks, everyone, for all your work on this! It looks awesome!

I do have feedback, but haven't had a chance to type it up yet (prepping for a training today). I should be able to send it tomorrow morning...definitely before the meeting!

Ruth, thanks for going over it. If everyone could have any feedback ready by the meeting tomorrow that would be great.

First off, this looks great.

I'm adding my nitpicks here.

page 2 - The Evergreen Project [provides support for the development of] an open-source ILS...

[The] Evergreen [ILS] began as a project...

It is now managed by [The Evergreen Project], a US 501(c)3...

page 5

Cape Fear Community College
[Wilmington, NC]

SPARK, Missouri Evergreen, and Evergreen Indiana libraries should be grouped with their consortium siblings.

Morrison Reeves should be Morrisson-Reeves Library

Rogan, thanks so much for your work on this.

I hit send a little too soon. At this point I'm looking for the nitpicky stuff, typos, etc... Major structural changes are pretty much set.
