Hi all, I went to go into the Media Wiki to update a dead link on one of the Guide pages (this one: https://mediawiki.bccampus.ca/index.php/Guide-Find-Open-textbooks) but I couldn't log in. I began to wonder if my password was wrong, so I clicked on the "forgot my password" link. It said that my email address couldn't be found on the server. Any idea what's going on? Have you had the same problem? Thanks, Brenda

Hello, Our next meeting will be on Feb. 28th at 2:30 PM. Please use this link to connect to the meeting - https://bluejeans.com/6045275190 Attached are the minutes from our last meeting (thanks Brenda). As I was just going to put a link to our BCOEL wikispace, I discovered that they are closing Wikispaces. http://blog.wikispaces.com/ So I guess I will put this on the agenda for our next meeting. However, if you don't have it bookmarked - here is our site - http://bcoerguides.wikispaces.com/ Talk to you on Wednesday, Feb. 28th. Debra
