Terms
of participation
The Council of State Archivists
(CoSA) has established the Local Government Archives List (LGAL) in
support of the NHPRC-funded
Local Government Archives (LGA) project,
“Closest to Home.”
Everyone with an interest in local government records
in any capacity is invited to subscribe to the LGAL.
During the course of the project, the LGA Task Force
plans to use the LGAL to
(1) disseminate information about the work of
the project’s task force and consultants, and
(2) receive feedback and advice from those working
on the front lines in local government repositories nationwide.
We also hope that the listserv will develop a life
of its own beyond the project, providing an easy way for archivists,
records managers, local government officials, librarians, and others
who work with local government records in any capacity to exchange information,
ask for advice, and share best practices.
There are two options for subscribing.
You can send an e-mail to: LocalGovt_Archives-subscribe-request@lists.maine.edu.
You will receive an e-mail in reply, asking you to confirm your subscription
request by going to the web address indicated, or by sending a confirmation
email with your subscription confirmation number (provided in the e-mail
you received).
Alternatively, you can go to the List website:
http://lists.maine.edu/archives/localgovt_archives.html,
and subscribe there. You will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm
your subscription in the same manner.
The Terms of Participation for the LGAL are available
at http://www.statearchivists.org/lga/listserv/listservterms.htm
To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to: LocalGovt_Archives-unsubscribe-request@lists.maine.edu
