Hi ACQNET subscribers,
I would like thank Lisa Spagnolo, Keith Powell, Xan Arch, Dracine Hodges and Keri Cascio for all their work on this transition of the list.
This listserve started at Cornell University on December 10, 1990. Christian Boissonnas was the founder and first list owner.
I am not sure when Eric Lease Morgan started archiving the list, but he has the entire archive up to this point and has committed to continuing to serve in this role for the time being.
I became the list owner in May 1994 when the list moved to Appalachian State University. The list then moved to ibiblio at UNC-Chapel Hill in October 2008.
As of today, December 14, 2015 we have migrated the subscriber list to a new list hosted by the Acquisitions Section of ALCTS (Association of Library Collections & Technical Services) at the American Library Association.
The new list will be called ACQNET. (without the -L)
There is a still a web site hosted by ibiblio called AcqWeb, but it should be considered a dormant site at this point.
Here's to a new era for library acquisitions networking!
