Performance Testing
Call Number Normalization
3. Marketing
Ben has run a survey for a tagline (with the winner “Search. Discover. Share.”) and has made further refinements to his new logo. We now need to come up with a strategy/timeline for updating the website and the master code. Do we need any additional website improvements (CSS/layout) in parallel with the logo change?
4. Other Topics?
Next Call
The next call will be Tuesday, April 29, 2014 at 10am Eastern Daylight Time (14:00 GMT).
