Use Cases / Case studies

Deliverable as described in the charter: A use-case document that describes a number of real-world use cases, case studies, outreach and dissemination initiatives targeted to the library community and related sectors see Draft UseCaseReport

Cases are described using this Use Case Template. For discussion on designing the template and organizing cases, see Use case process details.
