SECOND NOTICE

Dear Archives & Archivists List Subscribers:

Effective immediately, the Archives & Archivists List is migrating to a
new list server managed by the Society of American Archivists. In
addition, the SAA Council recently revised the list Terms of
Participation.

The new terms, along with instructions on how to subscribe to the new
A&A List, are posted at: 

http://www.archivists.org/listservs/arch_listserv_terms.asp

The A&A List remains "an open forum for all topics relating to archival
theory and practice." Membership in SAA is not a requirement.

The list at MU-Ohio will be disabled on Friday, September 15, 2006. The
current list archives will remain available pending their final
deposition.

HOW DO I RE-SUBSCRIBE?

Please visit
http://www.archivists.org/listservs/arch_listserv_terms.asp.

WHY IS THE A&A LIST MIGRATING?

After more than 7 years of exemplary service, Robert M. Schmidt is
stepping down as the Archives & Archivists List Coordinator. In order to
sustain the list, SAA is assuming ongoing responsibility for list
management.

WHO IS THE NEW LIST COORDINATOR?

SAA is pleased to introduce the new A&A List Coordinator, Kerwin R. So.
Kerwin is a student member of SAA who is pursuing an MLIS with an
Archival Studies emphasis at San Jose State University.  He was also a
Digital Collections Intern at the Bancroft Library and was recently
awarded the 2006 Archie Motley Memorial Scholarship for Minority
Students in Archival Administration. He brings a wealth of other
professional experience, including work at ArchiveGrid.org, the San
Francisco History Center, the Pacific Film Archive, and the National
Archives.

Sincerely,
Brian P. Doyle
SAA Director of Member & Technical Services
