had discussions in regards to requesting items “not in Trellis”.
Clarification will be sent around.
Carol Stephenson and Sasa Mrsa are continuing to weed the Biology Reference
Collection. A discussion followed regarding other weeding to be done. Selectors
should also look at later editions available.

conclude by August 2005.

our discipline web pages.
