[Digihubsadmin] Copies of narrative reports?

[Stephen Hedges]

Well that's a good point, that does sound pretty negative. I think I'll rename that section "Unexpected Obstacles," since the whole point (as you say) is to let others know about some of the surprises they may encounter in setting up their own digitization facility.

Thanks!

Stephen
