NLPES Listserve Sign-Up
The NLPES Listserve is up and running. An e-mail discussion group for NLPES members, this listserve allows a message to be sent to all NLPES e-mail subscribers simultaneously. You and your office can participate by posting "events" you think would be important to the membership (e.g., report publications and executive summaries, new hires, etc.), philosophical audit questions and ideas (when a muse captures a bit of your scant spare time...), and, best of all, questions regarding audits.
About the NLPES Listserve
Well over 10% of our NLPES membership is now "enlisted" on our NLPES Listserve, and that number is growing. More offices are announcing their latest report offerings and there have been numerous people "efficiently and effectively" gathering the basic information necessary to more quickly advance their own research on the topics of the day. States are now using the list server for publication notices of the reports they have issued. E-mail interchanges have also tapped states' research experience on evaluation topics as diverse as forestry studies and regulation of child care facilities to analyses of judicial system caseloads.

"Netiquette" for the NLPES Listserve
Thanks to you, the NLPES Listserve has been relatively free of "party line" banter. However, when using the listserve, please remember the following:
- Listserve authors should provide their e-mail address or telephone number for convenience. (If your e-mail software supports a signature line for outgoing mail, that expedient is nearly automatic.)
- When replying to a listserve e-mail, consider whether you should "broadcast" the response or contact the person directly by personal e-mail or telephone.
