further
3. James will send a reminder for people to read the subcommittee
charge on Intraspect
4. There is $1,600 more on the Senegal project than committed.
James will raise the issue of where to charge this overspent
money. This should go through Marion as Title VI Chair

responsibilities of the faculty representatives. James mentioned
the handbook explaining each position

for the Mozambican Archives project

Document project
8. National Archives of the Gambia
The Slave Trade Archives in Banjul is on a Canadian homepage.
But they cannot pay for their web site anymore to reactivate
access. They need a place to host it long term. Joe thinks
that they need to develop guides to accompany the archives.
He will get more details to see how (or whether) we can
do this)
9. Joe might be going to ESARBICA
