----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Colleagues, I have had a query about the posting schedule for arlis-l messages. This is it... I generally try to post the messages twice a day. I post them when I get them, but if someone sends something late in the Eastern Daylight Time working day, it could conceivably get delayed until the afternoon of the next day. I don't always forward mail on the weekends, but if I happen to log in and see mail I will send it. Occasionally there will be a network problem that delays mail either going into or out of our node, but this is rare. I have been sick a couple of times when I was just too sick to type and I have had a couple of instances when I was traveling and had trouble with hotel room connections, but these two scenarios are also rare. I generally post everything that is submitted. There is very little editing that takes place. The things that don't get posted are commercial ads, false subscribe messages (there are alot of them), requests for e-mail addresses that I have and can reply to myself, and messages that are obviously personal (for those I send a message to the originator of the mail asking them if it were really meant for the list...a couple of *really* embarrassing situations have been avoided). If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks, Mary _________________________________________ Mary Molinaro Associate Director of Libraries for Electronic Resources University of Kentucky 216 A King South Lexington, Kentucky 40506-0039 [log in to unmask]
