Hi Carol,

I am happy to agree to the terms you have provided below. In case you'd prefer it, I'll attach a Word copy in addition to the PDF I've already sent you. One quick question: is the Scholars' bank entirely internal, or is it somehow shared with other databases available more widely?

Thanks for your help!
James
