<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black">We are hoping to upload our collection database to FishNet2 in the coming months, and I was wondering if anyone has any data about the effect of inclusion in these types of global
databases on loan requests. After adding a collection database to a global databse (e.g., FishNet2, HerpNET, ORNIS, etc.), did loan requests noticeably increase? If so, does anyone have any data indicating the percent increase?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
