Gail,

 

I want to publicly THANK YOU for moderating this list. I have greatly
appreciated and *used* the resources that you and others have posted here. I
subscribe to other NIFL lists but they do not fill the same role - I am very
sorry to see this list discontinued.

 

Thanks for all you have done - and are doing - for family literacy!

Dear Subscribers,

 

As you read in the notice from NIFL that was posted last Friday, tomorrow
will be our last day together as members of the NIFL Family Literacy
Discussion List. I am sorry to see the List close and am grateful for the
time I have spent as its moderator. Thank you to each of you, both
contributors and lurkers, for your support and for sharing your expertise,
questions and concern for families. I feel as if I have grown in my
knowledge because of you and I hope that you have taken something away from
the List as well.

 

As you read in the NIFL notice, other lists are continuing. You may already
be subscribers to some of these lists, but if you are not you might want to
be. Look over the following list and if there is something there that fits
your needs and interests, please join that group for your discussions. Along
with some of the long standing lists, there are some new lists to consider:
Transitions, Reading and Writing Skills, and the Math and Numeracy
Discussion Lists. These lists should be available for your subscriptions on
or soon after October 1. To subscribe to a list, visit

The National Center for Family Literacy has enjoyed moderating this List
since the mid 1990s. If you have questions or concerns about your families,
practices, or programs, please call us at 502-584-1133. We will be glad to
help in whatever way we can.

 

Keep up the good work, the hard work, that you do in supporting families.  I
look forward to "seeing" you on one or more of the NIFL discussion lists.
Thanks again for your support. I have enjoyed our time together.

 

 

Gail
