Archive for Linkup-l Discussion List

The National Library of Australia created an electronic discussion list in 1998 to foster networking at the grassroots level among libraries concerned with service provision in the special interest areas of cultural diversity, literacy and disability. As well as creating a forum for discussion, it hosted 'news releases' and other information relevant to librarians working in these specialised areas.

The final Linkup-l posting was 2 December 1998. The National Library had carried out a survey of national and international electronic lists which showed that many of these, such as those produced by ALIA and IFLA, covered topics similar to Linkup-l. Consequently it was decided that the National Library would cease moderating the Linkup-l discussion list.

For more information on library e-lists produced by ALIA (Australian Library and Information Association) visit their web site on http://www.alia.org.au/. IFLA (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions) e-lists can be contacted through their web site http://www.ifla.org/index.htm.

The archive is divided into three parts:
