I, too, use lis-pub-libs to help keep abreast of issues of concern to those
who provide public library services. I appreciate the vast amount of email
which gets delivered, and that it is sometimes difficult to read all that is
in the in box. However, may I add my plea to those who say that the best
way forward is to redefine the terms for lis-pub-lib to recognise realities.
It may be that emails trawling for papers or for attendees at courses can be
off - putting for those who do not want to participate, but even these
emails keep alive the wide scope of the interests we have within the public
library community.
I suggets that lis-pub-libs is redifined to cover:
operational and polciy matters associated with providing public library
services.
I would be unhappy to see the list closed to a narrower viewpoint.
