  12. What we would like from the AALL community ALL Practices: • Names of a small group willing to upload practices to do a final test before we launch it to all AALL registered members Bibliographical Data: • Check whether your publications are up, and if so, check all details, eg whether the abstract is there, whether the correct search categories are identified, etc. • If your publications are not there, upload them. As you’ve seen, this is easy and won’t take too much time. • Add a PDF or URL if appropriate. • Add your contact details if appropriate. • Let us know if there are any search criteria missing.
