ASSOCIATES (vol. 5, no. 1, July 1998) - associates.ucr.edu
Well. The big moment has come...and gone. Our new website will indeed premier with this July issue, but exactly when is still in doubt as our intrepid webmistress, Katie Buller, has torn cartilege in her knee. However, for future reference, the URL will be http://raven.cc.ukans.edu/~assoc/ and it should be available this weekend (July 25-26, 1998).

ASSOCIATES: The Electronic Library Support Staff Journal has been moved (not without a few snags) to its new server. The server address is LISTPROC@UKANS.EDU. The address for submissions, letters to the editors, etc. is ASSOCIAT@RAVEN.CC. UKANS.EDU. As of this writing, archival issues cannot be obtained at this site. However, several other sites do archive ASSOCIATES. That information is available under our Archive, Gopher, FTP and WWW Retrieval Information section.

The URL for the home page of the Council on Library Media Technicians (COLT) has changed. All pages can be accessed via the New Base URL: http://library.ucr.edu/COLT/ [This link no longer works, 11/19/2004]
Please change your COLT bookmarks as soon as possible. The old base home page URL will link to the new automatically; however new pages such as the Library Support Staff Day information for California are only reachable via the new address. For the home page of the Northern California Chapter of COLT use http://library.ucr.edu/COLT/nccc.html. [This link no longer works, 11/19/2004]
