A great resource....but be careful! It's a mailing list!!
A listserve is an automatic mailing list you "subscribe" to (through your
e-mail) that could be on just about any topic. Often listserves are sponsored by academic
departments or areas, but can actually be set up by just about anyone who has a special
interest, hobby, profession etc. You usually subscribe to a list by sending a brief
message to the "listserve address" (you need to find the one(s) you want) to
"JOIN" or "SUBSCRIBE"... specific messages depend on each list. Once
you do this successfully, you will begin to receive regular e-mail from the list as other
people send their messages, questions, opinions etc. Likewise, you then can send your
messages to the list, and they will be sent out to all other subscribers automatically.
But again, beware! Depending on how active the list is, you could be flooded with mail
very quickly... so choose your listserves carefully.
