	The following individuals have been given temporary access

	University), Bo Warnschneider (University of Guelph). 

	Andrea Chappell is working on the secure telnet programme.

5.	Census, GSS, & VAW
	
	CENSUS

	Because the library gopher is no longer being developed, access to
	the census will be redone as Web pages in HTML. 

	Census files need to be moved over to library.  Albert Kemp will
	move these over after space requirements are evaluated.  The same
	structure will be retained and menu pages built.  Sue Moskal will be
	trained by Marina Wan to create HTML pages. 

	GSS and VAW files will also be moved to library.

	Doug Morton will speak with L. Hastings about a logo and standard
	style for the EDS pages

	GSS - nothing new

	VAW

	Doug and Carol will modify the SAS and SPSS stub files.

6.	User Interface

	All remaining equipment for Room 222 has been ordered.

	Doug will consult Charles Woods about the need to link to a
	specific printer in order to use Docutech.
