Hi everyone,

Thank you for voicing your concerns. We hope this transition will be as seamless as possible, but we recognize that there will be some challenges along the way. We encourage you to try out the new platform and we will continue to use your feedback to improve the forum. We think you'll find the new platform functions similarly to the old listserv and has additional functions that you will find beneficial. 

Thank you for your patience as we make this transition. We value your input and encourage you to continue sending your feedback.

Thanks!

The ISEN-ASTC-L listserv is moving! The listserv is moving to the new ASTC Community at community.astc.org and will be called the General Forum. At community.astc.org, you can participate in discussions, share resources, and connect with museum professionals from around the world. Learn how to retrieve your login information and join the ASTC Community at astc.org/about/pdf/HLhowto.pdf. Email [log in to unmask] with any questions.

Ditto.

Thanks for bringng these inconveniences to light. I fear a defection is afoot which exacerbates the disincentive to post; in turn spurring further attrition.

Bummer.
