From: Wendy Hanamura <[log in to unmask] Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2017 18:56:46 -0700 Dear Rhonda, Thank you for your question! We'll be relying on each library's catalogue so each institution can determine if we have a digital version of their physical holding. We want to work with you to build the right tools. What do you think would be a user-friendly way to check this?
