Conservation OnLine and the Conservation DistList

CoOL is Coming to AIC!

Having reviewed a proposal from AIC and following several
discussions, Stanford University Libraries has agreed that AIC will
be given responsibility for CoOL and the Conservation DistList. The
transfer of content from the Stanford servers will take place
immediately with expert guidance from Walter Henry, John Burke, and
technicians at Stanford.

Our first goal is to have the DistList operational as soon as
possible. Watch for one or more announcements on the DistList for
periodic updates regarding the resumption of activity. Other CoOL
resources will come online under new URLs as expeditiously as
possible. Discussions with allied and affiliate organizations will
continue.

AIC is pleased to be entrusted with these invaluable resources and
for the opportunity to sustain and develop them into the future. Our
goal is to keep CoOL and the DistList safe, viable, objective, and
accessible for the conservation community worldwide.

Please note that the DistList is not yet accepting submissions or
new registrations.  Comments or questions can be sent to

    coolinfo<-at->conservation-us<.>org

Thank you for your support of this major initiative.

       the AIC Board of Directors
