ARLIS-L

ARLIS-L is an electronic forum for the dissemination of information and the discussion of issues of interest to art information professionals. Postings routinely include reference and cataloging questions and discussion specific to art resources and materials; job vacancy announcements; conference, workshop, and meeting information; announcements of awards, honors, and prizes; news items from groups and individuals in the Society; copyright and information policy issues; and more.

ARLIS-L has moved to Gaggle! We’ve started fresh, so all subscribers must sign up anew. See below for instructions.  

ARLIS-L is a moderated open discussion list. Anyone may subscribe. Individuals posting messages are requested to sign their own real names; use meaningful subject headings; and, if inviting replies, specify whether these should be sent to the whole list or to themselves only.


The use of the listserv for advertising or sales by individuals or organizations is prohibited. Exceptions include listings for educational opportunities (workshops, classes, conferences); announcement of publications by ARLIS/NA members' institutions; mention of books for sale at book signings; listings of publications or other items produced by ARLIS/NA divisions, committees, special interest groups, or chapters; and announcements of professional journals of interest to the membership. Other postings may be permitted at the discretion of the listserv moderator.


Vacancy announcements for all professional positions should be first directed to the ARLIS/NA JobList service. Paraprofessional and internship opportunities may be posted directly to ARLIS-L. Information on new publications should be sent to the ARLIS/NA Reviews Editors.


The list is moderated by Judy Dyki, Cranbrook Academy of Art.
For now older posts are still accessible via the ARLIS-L Archives.
They too will be moving. Stay tuned for more information.
