Over the past few months our REPS Library Team has been hard at work on various ways to improve our Libraries, thanks to John, Mike and Larry, here is a message to clear up where you can find your resources now! Thanks for this info, Mike and John!! ______________________________ HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hello, everyone, Here is the latest update and new links to the REPS Library. THE OLD LINKS WILL NO LONGER WORK. As always, please keep the DOWNLOADS to a minimum. They take a long time to download to your computer and count against our 2TB limit per month. Instead copy them to your personal pCloud account. You will get between 3-10 GB of space for a free account. You can download your shows from all free or paid accounts to your local computer. Every account, regardless of whether it is free or paid, gets 2TB of downloads each month. The Excel catalog is broken down into three tabs. The REPS A-Z includes all files, including the Distro, but excludes the Old. The Old tab we hope to do away with soon. If you want only to see the new files, they are listed on the Distro tab. We know there are some listing and formatting problems in the catalog but hope to have them fixed for the next Distro. If you need other versions of the catalog, please let John know. We apologize for any problems you might encounter and for the delays. Only two of us are working on the Library, and we are both volunteers. If you would like to volunteer, please contact John at wryterjccc@.... This time, because of limits placed on us by pCloud, we have four links to the library. In the future, we will have to have additional links. Currently, we have over 5TB, posted. We have many more shows to post, but it will take time.
