<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Hello OACRAO and Friends!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p>There were numerous inquiries at our recent Summer Frontline Workshop regarding the upcoming federal regulations that prohibit financial holds from blocking the release of academic transcripts, effective July 1. To assist in understanding this policy, on
 June 5, AACRAO has released a “Guidance in Response.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Below is a link to that guidance, as well as a brief article discussing this Guidance.
