<p class="MsoNormal">Following our conversation with the LTER Executive Board, one idea that we discussed at today’s meeting is hosting a network-wide workshop to develop text that captures the identity of the network, and which can be used by sites when promoting
 their work through their institutional channels and in their presentations. <br>
We would like to host that workshop during our May 13 comm comm meeting.  In preparation, we are pulling together existing text at

<p>                Feel free to add text to that document<o:p></o:p></p>
