Planning for next year

Issues from last meeting to roll over to next meeting

  • Check in on Accession and Basics page editing to identify any outstanding work

  • Google Sheets for review tracking. Would allow for sorting of the data/information that is being tracked in the spreadsheet.

  • In Confluence perhaps we should have a parking lot for issues that arise while updating the manual.
