Matters arising All matters are included in the agenda 4. Reports of Visits & Seminars Visits • British Library 22 February This was fully booked. Sasha & Sam attended the visit but not the tour. The visit was very informative but a lot of information was put into the half day so it was suggested that it should be a whole day event and Paul would be happy to run the event next year.

Seminars • Enquiry Problem with Self promotion of the speakers, all the speakers were very different which provoked responses but hopefully there was something for everyone.
