UBC Team Visits UW (2015-02-04)

DSCN1655On February 4, 2015, the team from UBC came down to UW for a day of meetings and discussion about the project, plus tours of the collections and work spaces.  It was a great visit and very productive, resulting in many good ideas that will give us more to think about and plan for our continued collaboration.
