- Future Meeting Topic Discussion
- Topic ideas:

- Management for shared templates
- When another user runs a report off a template, the template cannot be deleted. Most admins reported that they create a hidden folder called "Trash" or similar and move templates that no longer work but can't be deleted to that folder.
- Also use hidden folders for creating and testing new templates. Creating separate folders for each new template you are working on may help with organization.
- PAILS(?) reported trouble on reports that have diacritics in titles and Bibliomation reported trouble with call number ranges - getting results outside of range, but no one else at the meeting had these specific issues.
