Geopolitical Monitor - the committee decided they did not believe there would be enough interest to move forward with an agreement at this time due to current budget issues even though the content looked good.

annual project

Six libraries have completed their anonymized summaries so far.  One library has not gone through major cancellations, so they did not contribute a narrative. Overall summary seems complete. Mary suggests we could use an editor to ensure a single style throughout—Chad will do this and send before the March meeting. We should also ask colleagues to review prior to the March meeting. Jim will add a bibliography.
