  No.  I have a part of the data in 3lib. That part is updated by
  them. But I have not updated in the recent past because of technical
  issues on my side, for which I apologize. I hope to be getting to
  fix this soon, it is second on my agenda list. I hope to be
  able, as a result of changes to publish an catalog per
  data series of what I have. 

  Cheers,
