Dear friends in adversity I've just had sight of a letter from Raymonde Kilpatrick of the CLA addressed to our Vice-Chancellor dated 7 October, announcing the availability of a "protocol to the existing agreement ... authorising the production of course packs and their distribution to students through Campus Bookshops". Surprisingly, the list seems to have been silent on this. Are you all "CLA'd-out", or does anyone have any comments/experience/knowledge on this which they would be willing to share? Thank you.
