SWAN Board, The agenda and packet for the RAILS Consortia Committee meeting to be held on Monday, July 23 is below. Rich Wolff has confirmed his attendance. I am the alternate representative. On Friday you will approve the rep and alternate for this RAILS committee. I think the document on the "Resource sharing definition and vision" and the "RAILS report" are worth reviewing. In the RAILS report, they provide some information on the overlay Find More Illinois, and their approach for RAILS consortium.
