LIS-UKEIG Discussion

LIS-UKEIG is UKeIG's electronic discussion list, which provides
members with a forum to exchange information on developments in
electronic information resources, whether they are online, CD-ROM
or on the Internet.
To join lis-ukeig, send the following message:

Alternatively, follow the link Join or Leave the list (or Change settings) on the lis-ukeig home page at http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/lis-UKEIG.html and fill in the form. This page also has links to the list archives.
All messages sent to the list are saved here, and you can browse through them by date, author or subject. You can also search the archives for a particular message.
An e-mail message with a confirmation code will be sent to the address you specify in the form. Wait for this message to arrive, then follow the instructions to confirm your subscription.

To unsubscribe from lis-ukeig when on holiday/out of office
If you use an auto-responder message to indicate that you are "out of the office" without unsubscribing from discussions lists,
this automatic message may be seen by many list members. There
is a simple way to avoid doing so by suspending your membership
of the list while you are away - email and web options for doing
so are given below.
When you return you can catch up on messages by going to http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/
and following the link to "Search Archives".
