- PRO-CITE on LISTSERV@IUBVM.BITNET
- or LISTSERV@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU
- "The Personal Bibliographic Software Discussion List"
-
- GENERAL INFORMATION:
- This list has been established as an international electronic forum
- for anyone using or interested in using the bibliographic textbase
- software program PRO-CITE and its companion BIBLIO-LINK programs
- published by Personal Bibliographic Software. These software
- programs provide the means to automate a wide variety of scholarly
- tasks related to the retrieval, organization, and use of
- bibliographic data. They operate on both MS-DOS and Macintosh
- platforms. With the much enhanced version 2.0 of Pro-Cite now
- available for both systems, it seemed like a good time to establish a
- Bitnet discussion group, whose existence could facilitate the rapid
- sharing of concerns, interests, problems and solutions among members
- at all levels of use.
-
- The owner of this list is Mark T. Day, Associate Librarian in the
- Indiana University Reference Department and Coordinator of its newly
- created Library Electronic Text Resource Service. I began using
- Pro-Cite and Biblio-Links while working at the Indiana Cooperative
- Library Services Authority from 1988-1990 as their Library
- Microcomputer Specialist and have felt for some time that an
- electronic discussion group, modelled after the several similar
- groups that already exist for other library and scholarly oriented
- software products, would be a very useful forum for advancing
- communication among those of us who work heavily with bibliographic
- data.
-
- For the list to be successful in serving the needs of its members,
- however, those members must be active contributors to the discussion.
- Currently the list operates in a non-moderated mode, in which all
- messages sent to the list automatically will be posted to all other
- members. Answers to questions sent out over the list will go to all
- members IF YOU POST YOUR ANSWER TO THE LIST, but will only go to the
- person who sent the original message if YOU REPLY TO THE ORIGINAL
- MESSAGE (more on the details of how to send and receive messages,
- obtain archived copies of previous correspondence, etc, below). So
- IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR INFORMATION about some aspect of a PBS
- product, SUBSCRIBE NOW AND JOIN THE DISCUSSION.
-
-
- HOW TO JOIN & SEND MESSAGES:
- 1) To join PRO-CITE, send the following one line e-mail message:
- SUBSCRIBE PRO-CITE Last Name, First Name
- in the BODY via BITNET to: LISTSERV@IUBVM
- or via INTERNET to: LISTSERV@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU
-
- 2) Once subscribed, send messages for posting on the PRO-CITE list:
- via BITNET to: PRO-CITE@IUBVM
- or via INTERNET to: PRO-CITE@IUBVM.UCS.INDIANA.EDU
-
- 3) To stop getting PRO-CITE mail temporarily (while on vacation, e.g.)
- send the following one line e-mail message:
- SET PRO-CITE NOMail
- to the same address you used to subscribe (item #1 above).
-
- 4) If your current address changes or becomes invalid, or you wish to
- stop subscribing to PRO-CITE, send the following one line message:
- UNSUBSCRIBE PRO-CITE
- to the same address you used to subscribe (item #1 above).
-
- 5) If you have questions about the list, or problems with its
- operation, you should direct them to the list owner.

- ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
- Indiana University Computing Services provides the computer space and
- software to support BITNET lists on its IUBVM node as a service to
- the research oriented needs of IU faculty, staff, and graduate
- students. The Indiana University Libraries supports the
- administration of electronic discussion lists as a professional
- activity of its faculty. However, neither of these organizations
- verify the accuracy of submitted messages or endorse the opinions
- expressed by authors of messages. The list owner will attempt to
- monitor this particular list and help keep it focused on problems
- related to personal bibliographic software issues, but authors of
- PRO-CITE messages are considered to be solely responsible for their
- own comments.
-
- Since this is a new list, with 88 subscribers as of July 26, 1992,
- there is no way to tell how many messages you are likely to receive,
- but similar lists for micro based software vary greatly from no
- messages in some weeks to several per day at other times. As
- messages start to be received they will be automatically archived on
- a monthly basis and can be retrieved as necessary with standard
- listserv retrieval and search commands:
-
- 1) You will be able to obtain a list of available archive files
- by sending an INDEX PRO-CITE command to LISTSERV@IUBVM.
- 2) Such files can be retrieved by issuing a GET PRO-CITE LOGYYMM command,
- where "YY" stands for the year and "MM" stands for the month.
- 3) If you are curious about who your fellow subscribers to this list are,
- send the message REVIEW PRO-CITE to LISTSERV@IUBVM.
