Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Suggestion for MuseumL postings

I am forwarding a sample of a listserve I receive for local events in my
area as a suggestion that the editor combine announcements/letters, etc
into one email to be sent daily rather than many. As you can see what
follows are instructions, a table of contents where one can click on the
item they wish to read and then the linked opportunity to:

 Reply to sender

 Reply to list
  Back to top

Presenting the museum listserve is this format would be much more efficient
with respect to the reader's time and/or response to those posting.

Please consider rewriting the format as sent below.

Many thanks for your consideration!

LISTSERVE SAMPLE of table of contents -although link is not formatted in the "forwarding" of this listserve each entry is linked to scroll down to for the reader's choice based on subject heading of the entry.

Norwich Farmer's Market - 35 year Celebration

Where were you 35 years ago?

Join us this Saturday, September 15 for a celebration of our 35th year.
We'll have live animals (goats, chickens, piglets, and ducks) and raffle
drawings throughout the day. Every purchase will earn you a ticket to enter
into a drawing so visit as many vendors as you can to increase your odds of
winning. We'll have over 20 prizes to give away.  --  Come early, we'll
start drawing at 9:30 and every half hour after that.

We just planted a ceremonial Red Maple near the gazebo to commemorate our
35 years as your local farmers market. It will provide shade in the summer
and glorious red color for many generations of folks who come to market.

As always, we'll be there from 9-1 with over 50 vendors and entertainment
from Green Room. Hope to see you there this Saturday and for many years to
come.

And remember -- We're at our Rt. 5 site (1.5 miles South of Norwich) every
Saturday through the end of October.
