New member intro --

I'm Rick Ludeman of Portland, Oregon.  Over the years I've volunteered as a 
tutor with a variety of literacy programs.  I'm also the father of two young 
sons to whom I try to read every night.

As I learn more about literacy programs in my state I am consistently 
impressed with the dedication and innovation of the people and programs.  At 
the same time, I have also noticed that efforts sometimes appear fragmented 
and, I assume, agencies occasionally feel as if they're "reinventing the 
wheel."  

I'd like to hear from other members about ways to bring about synergy and 
achieve leverage.  I believe there are models for statewide organizations that 
act as one or more of the following:  information clearinghouse, focal point 
for advocacy, technical consultants.  I welcome your thoughts, leads, and 
contacts.  Thanks.

______________________________________________________________
It's November and I'd like to welcome the 21 new subscribers to the list.  If 
you haven't introduced your self, please plan to do so soon.
     
I am Robin Jurczyk, moderator of nifl-family and family literacy specialist 
at the National Center for Family Literacy.  That means I travel across the 
country conducting all kinds of training related to family literacy.   I am 
looking forward to sharing with you some of the concerns and resources "from 
the road" as well as information from other sources. Before coming to NCFL I 
taught kindergarten in northeast Arkansas and produced satellite delivered 
training at the Arkansas Educational Television Network.  These trainings 
covered everything from in-service training with the American Red Cross for 
early childhood caregivers on cardio-pulmonary-resusitation  to training 
emergency personnel on how to deal  with hazardous materials for the Office 
of Emergency Services.
     
To be a good moderator I need your help.  Take a moment to introduce yourself 
to the list and let us know some of your concerns or interests related to 
families and literacy.  As we have seen in the last two weeks, the group has 
expertise on a wide range of subjects.
     
If you are new to the internet, I will take a moment to give you some 
suggestions about your mail style:
     
* When you join a list, please introduce yourself to other list members.
     
*At the end of each message,include your name, e-mail address and your 
program affilitation.  The header information is not displayed on all mail 
systems, and including this information will better allow others to respond 
to your message.
     
*Be concise.  Messages more than 2 screens in length are difficult for some 
participants to read.
     
**Before you send a reply, consider if it should go to everyone on the list 
or just to the person whose message you are replying to.  If you think it 
will be of general interest, then send it to the list; if not, be careful to 
reply only to the message originator.
     
*When you are replying to a posted message, it helps readers if you quote the 
part of the message (usually not the whole message) that you are replying to.
     
*E-mail messages typed in all capitals are considered shouing, so be 
considerate.
     
*Be cautious in using sarcasm on the Internet.  Comments made in jest may not 
always appear that way to other readers.
     
*Your subject should tell the recipient as much as possible about your 
message, without getting too long.
     
*Remember, e-mail is not particularly private.  A glitch can cause the system 
to deliver your mail to the wrong recipient on the wrong system.
     
*Don't pass on chain letters.
                                               exerpts from Netiquette tips
NIFL-LINCS and
                                               "The Internet for Dummies"
     
I think I am close to the two screen limit, so I will welcome you once again 
and look forward to interacting with you soon!
