Comment 26 for bug 1691269

Just to make sure -- we do need the ability to export and import within the
web client for those times we have to share templates with new people, for
example. Also, it isn't unusual in PINES libraries for one person to create
the templates and then send them to all catalogers and to vendors.

I will try to get back to testing this afternoon. I have to train someone
on OCLC ILL this morning....
