What is still missing? -
Trying to explian difference between open source and commercial product
One sheet - to explain the community - Samvera is the Community that has provided Solution Bundles - presenting means through which it can be solved
Support for digital scholarship services - repos, exhibits, images, video - havinga solution in a community to support the various kinds of products developed at the Academy now - directors, faculty, admins can relate to
Enabling digital scholarship services - good longterm prospects as an alternative to vendors - good library values. Samvera aligns better with good library values.
