Subject:      LISTSERV list information home page
I've set up a World Wide Web home page for LISTSERV lists.  It
features handy "reference" pages with lists grouped along
certain topics, as well as a host of other information, such as
how to join, the # of members, whether the archives are open,
etc.  I'm posting this announcement here because the www site
has a page for Literature and Writing .
Its URL is "http://www.clark.net/pub/listserv/listserv.html"
Use Mosaic, Lynx, WWW, Cello, etc. to view it.
LISTSERV lists for the following topics are represented:
Agriculture, Anthropology, Apple Computer, Art, Biology &
Chemistry, Business, Computers, Curricula, Database, Ecology,
Education, Food, Graphics, History, IBM, Internet & Bitnet, Law,
Library, Literature & Writing, Mathematics, Medicine, Music, PC
Software, Physics, Psychology & Philosophy, Religion, Science,
Teaching Institutions, Technology, Unix, and VMS & VM.
Here is what a typical entry looks like:

Subject:      Re: CALL FOR PAPERS/SLS 1995 in LA
Carol:
Thanks for e-mailing the call for papers.  It looks fine--I had some
thoughts
about trying for some wording that might help avoid the problem of
sessions of
unrelated papers, but there wouldn't have been room for it here in one
page
anyway.  Maybe I can get it into the longer mailing that you said will
go out
after the meeting.  One typo: in the description of "seminar
sessions" you have
"prescribed audience"; should be pre-subscribed, I think.
