Bad news: CoOL]
I just rec'd the most recent edition of the Conservation DistList. The first item reads as follows: Date: 10 Jun 2009 From: Catherine Tierney <ctierney [at] stanford__edu> Subject: CoOL and the Conservation DistList Dear Colleagues, This is a difficult posting to write. For twenty two years, it has been Stanford University Libraries' great pleasure to serve and support the conservation community by hosting Conservation OnLine. Sadly, Stanford---like so many other institutions---has been hurt by the economy. As a result, we have had to make difficult choices. It is with deep regret that I inform you that we are no longer able to support CoOL. We feel it is important to alert you to this change as we are aware that so many of you rely on the distribution list as a medium of communication; there are still a number of things to be worked out. <URL:http://news.stanford.edu/news/2009/june17/layoffs-061709.html> I make frequent use of the resources available from CoOL (Conservation Online) < http://palimpsest.stanford.edu/ > Greg Schmitz Alaska Moving Image Preservation Association Anchorage Alaska
