State Agency Databases Activity Report 12/16/2012

The volunteers at the State Agency Databases Across the Fifty States project at http://wikis.ala.org/godort/index.php/State_Agency_Databases spent last week fixing a lot of links and finding some databases to add to our state lists.

Our survey on whether to retain our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/statedbs only got seven responses. While this might already send the message that the project Facebook page will not be missed, we’re going to keep the survey open another week. So if you haven an opinion one way or the other, we’d love you to visit http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/GHP7SPY and answer our quick, four question survey.

Now on to our activity highlights. For the full listing of changes in the last week, see http://tinyurl.com/statedbs.
