	On behalf of the National Institute for Literacy and LINCS national
and regional staff, I would like to thank Fran Keenan for her great work in
moderating the ESL Discussion list for the past five years.   Fran will be
joining PBS LiteracyLink as the coordinator of the CONNECT project,
effective December 28, 1999. CONNECT is a web-based ESL distance learning
project that will build on PBS's LiteracyLink.  
	We established  the ESL discussion list with Fran as the moderator
and a few subscribers in March 1995.   We started in a rather new
environment then, not knowing how well we could achieve our goals in
bringing the literacy field together on critical issues and providing an
environment and tools for sharing resources and ideas.   

	Fran was one of four NIFL list moderators who helped in shaping the
list policies and activities.  Thanks to her resourcefulness, skills and
expertise, the ESL list became an inviting environment for many
practitioners to communicate and help each other.  Today, the list has grown
into a very lively list with over 800 subscribers and many others who use
the LINCS archives to take advantage of the collective wisdom of the list
subscribers  

	I also would like to thank Fran for her contributions in the
development of many other aspect of LINCS and her help in the design of the
new LINCS sites.   Fran will still be involved in LINCS as a member of the
LINCS ESL Special Collection Advisory group and also an active member of the
ESL List.   

	Thanks again Fran for all your contributions.
