Thoughts I heard multiple times:
Need for clarified roles among IT/AT and Library positions dealing with
similar "stuff"

Need for improved understanding in the IT community about what
constitutes "library resources."

This is an opportunity to stimulate discussion between records management
people and librarians.

An e-portfolio that follows you through life is "lifelong learning realized."
Heard this from Cliff Lynch and others. Introduces a host of issues related to
archiving, establishing security and "trust," portability...

Need to add to issues: "roles" in CMS and level of access. Example: librarians
with access to CMS courses. IT support individuals with access to be able to
provide support or assistance without compromising student information.
