Good afternoon,<br>
<br>
Items for your attention before our meeting next week:<br>
<br>
1. <u>Send comments to me on the metrics document (attached) by
April 1.</u> Review the summary <br>
document and send me your feedback on which metrics better
communicate the value of <br>
NHERI as a research infrastructure supporting its users. The goal is
not to add new metrics <br>
but to identify those that work better to communicate the value of
NHERI to NSF, researchers <br>
and the public at large. I have already received comments from
CONVERGE and FIU. See<br>
minutes from our 3-7-19 meeting (second attachment).<br>
<br>
2. If you have not provided the data on demographics please do so.
Upload to the NHERI box.<br>
<br>
3. Review the draft of the minutes from the 3-7-19 meeting.<br>
<br>
4. Send agenda items for the April 4th meeting by Friday.<br>
<br>
5. Identify items for the NHERI Council Annual Work Plan that you
may wish to request with <br>
the NCO annual report at the end of April.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Julio<br>
