contacted Anna through one of the members of the VIVO Iberoamerican group. She asked Anna many
questions about VIVO and about the implementation of a CRIS. Anna invited her to the Iberoamerican user

have other thoughts on how to help them, please contact Anna.

At the moment copyright owner is the Cornell University, we should discuss whether it is possible to
