Send Finished Georeferenced Files Back

[Patricia Freeman]

Dear Carol-
How do we stand with you?  Is someone georeferencing Nebraska
localities for us? Or do we do them?  I only have half a collection
manager now for all four vertebrate groups and have tried not to think
about any extra work.

I will be contacting John about what needs to be done with all the
collections, but UNSM does not get HERPnet funding til 2007,  I think
(we are listed and UN in the grant and some get us confused with USNM -
national museum).

I am afraid I have not be able to keep up with anything because of my
increased teaching duties.  Perhaps we will need to talk on the phone
about what is happening.

Regards-
Trish
