Lisa,
Wow. Were your ears burning this last Friday (23 Nov)? Carolyn, my girlfriend, and I had lunch in San Francisco on Saturday and your name came up. Today, my subscription to Dan Cohen’s blog had a familiar name.
So good to see you here.
I look forward to reading more.
Cheers,
Johnnie
Hi Lisa! Glad to see that you are blogging. Hope all is well at Rice.

Lisa,
Hope that this post finds you well. As you can see we have published some ground breaking international research concerning funders attitudes, policies and practices in supporting the sustainability of digital content projects: “Funding for Sustainability: How Funders’ Practices Influence the Future of Digital Resources”.
The research was commissioned by the Strategic Content Alliance and undertaken by Ithaka S&R as we recognized that the thorny issues surrounding how best to scope and support sustainability post grant funding was an issue common to a number of funders and grantees across the globe.
The report, written by Nancy L. Maron and Matthew Loy, is available on the SCA Blog at: http://sca.jiscinvolve.org/wp/2011/06/14/ithaka-funding-report/
I would be extremely grateful if you would consider reviewing the report via your blog.
Thank you for your consideration and best wishes
Sarah Fahmy
