This report was prepared from minutes of meeting, reports, newsletters, and memoranda from all three University Libraries. I am especially grateful to authors Mike Ridley, Ron MacKinnon, Carol Goodger-Hill, George Loney, Donna Sartori, from the University of Guelph; Virginia Gillham, Vera Fesnak from Wilfrid Laurier University; and Mark Haslett, Susan Routliffe, Linda Teather from the University of Waterloo. Errors, omissions, and leaps in logic are mine.
