Greetings, I would like to report that LISTSERV is celebrating its 10th anniversay on Oct. 24. This is the software which has enabled MLA-L over the years. You can learn about it at: http://www.lsoft.com/ While MLA-L is not 10 years old, I can report that the first MLA-L message was distributed on March 28, 1989. Since then, 17,931 messages have been distributed, averaging 6 per day. These messages have been sent by 2900 different addresses. I guess music librarians are verbose. Congratulations to everyone (and to Eric Thomas--LISTSERV creator). Join your nearest LISTSERV party if you can find it. By the way, I can also report that Indiana University will be upgrading LISTSERV to a newer version on a new server sometime in the near future (it will take several months). We will verify that all current functionality is preserved. But we also assume that additional features (such as web based searching of the log notebooks) will be available. Of course, I'll keep you informed of any changes as they occur. *GO* Cordially, forever more, *!!* A.
