networking.
The primary use of the list will be for official
notifications to members, especially to send members notification of
issues of our electronic publication b/ITE. We will be using our
discussion list, SLA-DITE, to inform members of the availability of each
issue of b/ITE, as well as to communicate and get feedback from members
to enhance the vitality of our Division.
Suitable subjects for posting are:
-
Discussions of topics of interest to special
librarians from daily practical problems to the future of the
information profession

Sharing of individual, committee, and section
information

Questions and concerns from members soliciting
colleague solutions

NET ETIQUETTE
Participants on these list are asked to be tolerant and
courteous. Messages sent should relate to issues of interest to members
of the Information Technology Division of SLA. The goal of this
conference is to promote networking. If problems arise, they should be
referred to the Division Chair or List Manager, as should any comments
and suggestions on the functioning and policy of the conference.
CROSS-POSTING TO MULTIPLE LISTS
If you are sending a note of your own to several lists,
it is a courtesy to draw attention to the cross-posting at the beginning
of the message to make it easier for people subscribed to several lists
to delete the duplicates.
FORWARDING A NOTE FROM ANOTHER LIST
If you wish to forward someone else's message from
another list, it is expected that you obtain that person's permission
before you do so.
GOING ON VACATION
