Project SAILS beta testing outside North America

I was a bit slow picking this up but I think it is still open: project SAILS wants non-USA institutions to beta-test their information literacy testing tool. "The beta test is open to any institution testing outside the United States. There is no fee to participate. Testing takes place between August and December of 2013. Each participating institution should commit to getting 100 or more students to take the test. You will need at least 50 test-takers in order to get a report.... We need at least three institutions in a country in order to create the country-specific benchmark." There is more information at http://beta.projectsails.org/betatest
