Organization Change
ILSIG (Information Literacy Special Interest Group)
This division of ALIA, Australia's information literacy group, is no longer
active. It has been replaced by the ALIA Information Literacy
Forum. http://www.alia.org.au/groups/infolit/
This group has its own listserv: aliaINFOLIT. See Web site for details.
Listserv Change
BI-L, Martin Raish's major international listserver dedicated to library
instruction for over a decade, with members in over 35 countries, ceased in
June, 2002. It is being replaced by the new ACRL IS listserver, entitled ILI-L
(Information Literacy Instruction Listserv), now moderated by Sarah McDaniel.
Messages will continue to include announcements, inquiries and answers
from members about all manner of relevant instruction issues, from philosophy
to pedagogy to equipment.
BI-L's archives (1995+) are still available at this writing at the BUBL site: http://bubl.ac.uk/mail/bild/ .
BUBL is also the proposed site for ILI-L's future archives.
NOTE: You can
subscribe to ILI-L by sending the e-mail message subscribe
ILI-L your name to listproc@ala.org
. It is suggested that you "lurk" this professional site (read daily
messages, get a sense of the tone and tenor of messages, etc.) for a week or
two before sending any inquiries to the list.
