G. Di Cocco, F. Fuschino, M. Galli, C. Labanti, and M. Marisaldi, on
behalf of the AGILE MCAL team, report:

The short-duration GRB 130307A was observed by Fermi (GBM: trigger
384318107, Pelassa, GCN Circ. 14271Loading...
 
 ), Konus-Wind, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), 
Swift (BAT), AGILE (MCAL), and MESSENGER (GRNS), at about 10904 s UT 
(03:01:44). The burst was outside the coded field of view of the BAT.

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose
coordinates are:
     ---------------------------------------------
      RA(2000), deg                 Dec(2000), deg
     ---------------------------------------------
    Center:
     155.996 (10h 23m 59s) +22.998 (+22d 59' 53")
    Corners:
     154.692 (10h 18m 46s) +22.026 (+22d 01' 32")
     155.790 (10h 23m 10s) +23.534 (+23d 32' 02")
     157.288 (10h 29m 09s) +23.852 (+23d 51' 08")
     156.204 (10h 24m 49s) +22.463 (+22d 27' 46")
     ---------------------------------------------
The error box area is about 1.6  sq. deg, and its maximum dimension is
3.0 deg (the minimum one is 1.3 deg).

This box may be improved.
