[Wactclc-primo] DIgital Collections (was Link to Search)

[Daniel Moore]

I would like to volunteer to demo it. Would anyone like to join me?

I don't mind being public about this sort of information - I'm having an
MRI done next Monday, so, my attention is a bit shaky right now. How would
2/11 work for everyone for this demo?
