Tips for submitting NERS enhancement requests

The 2023 Primo request submission period ended January 28, 2023, but you can still submit requests for next year’s cycle.

The 2023 Primo enhancement voting process for round 1 is underway! More details can be found at the PRIMO-L listserv message announcing the opening of the voting. The voting is scheduled from March 12 – April 2, 2023. Your time zone will vary, of course, so please submit early to not miss the voting cutoff. You do need a NERS login to vote.
