I guess the questions I would ask at this point are:

1 How does this page differ from the one that was suggested and
presented to CCN by the Library School students as a part of their
course work?

2 If this page does differ from what the Library School students
proposed then was there consultation within CCN on the new
revised format?

At some point we do have to move forward with changes and while we
cannot wait for everyone to agree with new formats, there is always
time for changes that will accomodate concerns expressed.

3 How would the page be changed to reflect the concerns expressed?
