about the Sense of Place project that I am ‘representing’ US LTER in. Our next step will be to survey potential partners at LTER, iLTER and iLTSER sites to find out about current activities and interest in Sense of Place research and/or programming. We look
forward to the input and engagement of people in the LTER ed community and beyond.</span></p>
