[Louisa Worthington Rogers]

The following message is being cross-posted.  Please excuse the duplication:

-------------------------------------------

This message announces a new ESI (Engineering and Science Informatics)
email list, esi at mit.edu.

This list is meant to provide a place for discussion of engineering and
science data management issues for anyone, including librarians and
scientific data managers working with the burgeoning mass of digital
data coming out of the engineering and science research communities.

This includes, but is not limited to, preliminary audits, pilot
projects, planning for data management, the creation of standards and
workflows, use of new and old technologies, the social aspects of data
sharing, and moving data into a system in which it can be preserved and
reused.

To subscribe to the list, send a message to esi-request at mit.edu with
"subscribe" (no quotes) in the body of the message. Leave the subject
line blank.

Please feel free to contact Amy Stout (astout at mit.edu) with any 
questions, and happy new year to all!
