Maryland's electronic
discussion list for librarians
MARYLIB is an electronic discussion group intended to provide
Maryland area librarians with a fast, convenient way to interact on problems
and opportunities of local interest. Keep up with ALA/MLA events. Share job
openings with colleagues. Offer weeded items from your collection to others.
Ask a question. Hear about new issues of The CRAB first!
This list is open to all who are employed by a library such as
librarians, library associates, paraprofessionals, circulation and support
staff. It is also open to library school students, library volunteers and
trustees.
Subjects for this list should be related to Librarianship in
general and to the Maryland area in particular. Requests for assistance, offers
of material, and legitimate library job postings are all fair game. This is a
professional forum. Persistently sending off-topic posts and violations of
common courtesy may result in removal from the list.

REMEMBER that when you reply to a message sent through the
listserv, your message will go to EVERYONE on the listserv. To reply privately,
you must send a separate message addressed to the original sender. Therefore,
it's a good idea to include your e-mail address in the body of any message you
post to the list. In some systems, the reader won't be able to see the address
in the sender line.
