2010/07/08,12 - Honors Theses are Go!

I think the new repo server is nearly ready to start accepting Honors College theses this fall. I updated the site to include links to Midge's final liability release form; submitted a couple test records; spoke with Tony about the web design; sent the following e-mail to Kathie at the Honors College, and finally submitted a purchase order for a new SSL certificate for the server. Tony had the good idea to setup a rule that routes http://repo.lib.auburn.edu/honors/ to the collection too.

Hi Kathie!

I just want to give you an update on the 
online collection for honors theses.
I think we're on track for a fall release.

*. The attached Word document has the final legal
    disclaimer approved by the lawyers.
    The form is also online:
        http://repo.lib.auburn.edu/HonorsLiabilityForm.pdf 
    and
        http://repo.lib.auburn.edu/HonorsLiabilityForm.doc 
   Let us know if you have questions or see problems.
    
*. The theses collection is at:
         http://repo.lib.auburn.edu/honors/ 
    You can add that link to the Honors College web site
    once we go live.
    We'll remove the 2 test records before then.

*. The library web designer, Tony Oravet, plans to update the
    site design in the next month.
    Please let us know if you have any requests.

*. I'll be out of town July 19 until August 9.
    Can we plan to meet sometime the week of August 9
    to review the site, and to give you some training
    on how to add a student to the system, and how
    to review a student's submission ?
    Monday to Thursday 
    starting 9:30am to 2:00pm is best for me ...

I think that's all I wanted to report.
What do you think ?

Cheers,
Reuben
