Subscribing to the LIBRARYDIR Mailing List

Mailman is a web-based email discussion-list manager that replaces the Washington Community and Technical College (WCTC) system's listservs. The LIBRARYDIR mailing list consists of subscribers who are typically library directors or members of LMDC. To become a member of the LIBRARYDIR list, you add (or "subscribe") yourself to it. Once you have subscribed to the LIBRARYDIR list, you will receive a copy of any e-mail correspondence that is sent to it.

To subscribe to the LIBRARYDIR list:

1.
From your web browser, go to http://lists.ctc.edu/mailman/listinfo.
The lists.ctc.edu Mailing Lists page appears.
2.
Click on the LIBRARYDIR list.
The LIBRARYDIR information page appears.
3.
In the Your Email Address field, type your email address. This is the address to which the list's emails will be sent.
4.
In the optional Your Name field, type your name.
5.

In the Pick Your Password field, type your password.
Note: If you do not create a password, Mailman will create one for you.

6.
In the Reenter Password to Confirm field, type your password again.
7.

At the "Would you like to receive list mail batched in a daily digest?" prompt, click No to receive each email as it is sent to the list (this is the default). Click Yes to receive one daily email containing all the messages from that day.

8.

Click the Subscribe button.
Mailman will automatically send you an email asking you to confirm your request.

9.

To complete the subscription process, reply to the email as instructed in the message.
Note: If you do not respond to this email within three (3) days, your request will become invalid. You can then subscribe to the list again by following the steps above.

Once you have successfully subscribed, Mailman will automatically send you an email welcoming you to the list.

For more information about using the mailing list, see the Mailman documentation.
