US Federations Discussion

[Ann West <>]

All,

I wanted to alert you of an upcoming meeting that may be of interest to those 
of you exploring and supporting federated access. 

As mentioned on the last US Feds call, if there are items you'd like to see 
on the program, or if the group would like to hold a side meeting, please let 
me know.

Oh and my apologies if this announcement is a duplication.

Best,
Ann
