Subject: Discussion List Request

Dear Jane,
I would be most grateful if you could post my request to the 
englit-victoria list to see if any of the members can help me along 
the way with my research request. Although I usually lurk on the 
list, I am a keen reader of the scholarly discussions that take place 
and I would be happy to post a summary of the responses if 
deemed appropriate for the list. 
With many thanks,
Wendy

*The Message*

I am a third year postgraduate researcher who is investigating the Use
of the Internet by academics in the discipline of English Literature
for research and teaching purposes. For part of my studies I am
looking at discussion lists and the way in which they are used by
academics to answer a query or request for information. As a member of
the Duet list I wondered if you would mind answering a couple of
questions for me?

1) What other lists do you subscribe to/and/or contribute to on a
regular basis? 

2) What are your reasons for using these lists and why?

Any advice, comments and answers would be appreciated.
Yours,
Wendy Shaw
