SEMLS Electronic Discussion List Policy

The Southeastern Massachusetts Regional Library System (SEMLS) electronic discussion list was established to provide a communication forum for member libraries. The following policy governs postings to the list.

1. SEMLS member library staff and supporters are invited to subscribe in order to raise issues of common concern, learn about breaking SEMLS news, and receive information important to Regional participation.
2. Library staff from all Massachusetts libraries is encouraged to exchange ideas, post questions or vacancies, announce surplus items for sale, or to use the mailing list for other library-related purposes.
3. Messages dealing with issues specific to one library or region should not be cross-posted to the lists of other regional library systems.
4. Commercial announcements and advertisements are not permitted.
5. Sending file attachments is prohibited. To prevent the spread of viruses, any attachments are automatically stripped from your message before posting.
6. In an effort to ensure that the SEMLS list meets subscriber expectations, SEMLS reserves the right to make judgments and to exclude postings from outside the list that do not meet the above guidelines.
