Dear Colleague:
We are writing to invite you to subscribe to the newly established Local
Government Archives List (LGAL), sponsored by the Council of State
Archivists (CoSA) in support of the NHPRC funded Local Government Archives
(LGA) project, "Closest to Home."
Everyone with an interest in local government records in any capacity is
encouraged to subscribe to the LGAL.
During the course of the project, the LGA Task Force plans to use the LGAL:
(1) to disseminate information about the work of the project's task force
and consultants, and (2) to receive feedback and advice from those working
on the front lines in local government repositories nationwide.
We also hope that the listserv will develop a life of its own beyond the
project, providing an easy way for archivists, records managers, local
government officials, librarians, and others who work with local government
records in any capacity to exchange information, ask for advice, and share
best practices.
There are two options for subscribing. You can send an e-mail to:
