Upcoming e-Forums from ALCTS

CHICAGO - ALCTS, the Association for Library Collections & Technical Services, announces its upcoming e-Forums. The ALCTS e-Forum is a moderated discussion on timely topics of interest in the areas of library collections and technical services.

*What is an e-Forum?*

Offered free of charge, an ALCTS e-Forum provides an opportunity for librarians to discuss matters of interest, led by a moderator, through the e-Forum discussion list. The e-Forum discussion list works like an e-mail listserv: register your e-mail address with the list, and then you will receive messages and communicate with other participants through an e-mail discussion. Most e-forums last two days. Registration is necessary to participate, but it's free. See a list of upcoming e-Forums.

To subscribe to the ALCTS e-Forum, follow these instructions. Instructions for registration are available at e-Forum registration. Once you have registered for one e-Forum, you do not need to register again, unless you choose to leave the email list. Participation is free and open to anyone.

There is no special software or interface that you have to use.
