Still to decide if we want to update anything for the final demo based on feedback, updating the prototype and doing a demo.  We will aim to wrap this up soon though (maybe a week for the update and then demo the week after)

      • Next next steps are: figuring out what to do for the final discovery phase.  We have thrown around ideas related to ILL/items at other institutions.  We would need to work out the linked data aspects. Also would be good to review what other options might be of interest.
