Hi all,

This message is to let you know that in future, your messages to other
Schlib members should go to
*schlib at lists.merlin.mb.ca*<schlib at lists.merlin.mb.ca>. That is
because the lists run by Merlin have been updated and moved to a
new server. The links on the Schlib wiki will be fixed accordingly so you
can always check there for the most recent information.
http://schlib.pbworks.com

Unfortunately, the archives have disappeared but if we can get the file,
we'll post it online at the wiki if you want to search it for past messages.

The Twitter account at http://twitter.com/schlib is another place to get
information. While we're on the topic of Twitter, here are some recent
Schlib postings from there:

Also, yesterday the Edublog Awards results were announced. The winners and
