Goal • Review basic procedures on: • Packaging & labeling • LAND bags • LAND usage statistics • Reporting problems • LAND Advisory Committee
Packaging and Labeling • Each participant is issued reusable zippered nylon bags. • Include name of institution, city, 3 letter abbreviation for hub, and date on label so that it shows through the window on the bag. • Complete mailing address not needed.

Report Your LAND Usage • Report your LAND usage each month using the Zoomerang survey form on the Nylink web site. http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/survey-intro.zgi?p=WEB228ZH2U723Q
LAND Usage Worksheet • The LAND Usage Worksheet is an Excel file that you can use to calculate your LAND usage by entering the number of bags and items that you send out each day. http://nylink.org/delivery/land_manifest.cfm
To Report LAND Problems • Contact Nylink with problems • Jon Penn pennj@nylink.org • Sandy Cowin cowins@nylink.org • Peg Palmiere palmierep@nylink.org OR Use the problem report form on the Nylink web site.
Please Report LAND Problems • Do not hesitate to let Nylink know about problems. • The sooner we know about a problem, the sooner we can work with Velocity on a solution.
