Same, Steven! Another reason I was originally questioning why Pearson made this decision.

Does this collaboration between Georgia Tech and Peasrson (with invite for other publishers to join PubFile) mean that it is vying to be an alternative to ATN and EMMA? Just curious if anyone has any inside scoop 😀

Best,
Ramya

[External email - use caution]



Hello!



We are still in the process of having our legal dept. approving the new ATN agreement. In the meantime, I received an email that Pearson is starting to use "PubFile Nexus<https://pub-file-nexus.cidi.gatech.edu/>" for file sharing (seems to be through Georgia Tech!!). For those of you currently using ATN, is Pearson participating via ATN too?



Thanks in advance!



Best,

Ramya
