Hope no one considers this off topic.  Our library has used Linux for 
most of our web work.  The new list grew out of a posting on PUBLIB-NET.


				ANNOUNCEMENT

This is to announce a new library dicussion list, "linux4lib", an internet 
mailing list for Librarians interested in the Linux operating system.  
The list is intended for discussion of all aspects of using Linux in libraries.
Linux is a freely distibutable UNIX clone for the 386/486/586 
architecture with extensive networking capabilities.  It offers libraries 
an alternative way to develop internet connections and services.  
Appropriately LINUX4LIB is a Majordomo-based list served on 486DX2-66 PC 
running Linux 1.3.20, from a small public library in the middle of nowhere.

To subscribe to the list, send a subscribe command in the body of the 
message to : 
	"majordomo at virginia.lib.mn.us",
in the form :
	"subscribe linux4lib <e-mail address>".

Send the command "help" to the same address to get a complete list of 
Majordomo commands.

Postings to the list should go the the address :  
	"linux4lib at virginia.lib.mn.us".

Questions and problems should be reported to the address :
	"thom at virginia.lib.mn.us".

Our apologies for any duplicated postings.
