Noted that we need to make a decision about FirstSearch block purchase. Science is up and available. John Jaffee is working on completion of private institutions expenditures.

Narrative report includes recommendations for future training fairs.
A major recommendation is to hold one fair in a central site rather than two in different sites. Chocolate at Virginia Tech was very well received, as was chicken Caesar salad at Richmond. People really appreciated the post-fair posting of additional training information to the VIVA listserv. Perhaps user services contacts could make it a point to post such things from time to time. Jane s report is available on the Web.
