ABOUT THE COMMERCIAL DIGEST

SERIALST Commercial Digest pilot project: Since June 2008, the SERIALST
moderators have been experimenting with compiling and distributing a
Commercial Digest once a week, on Friday afternoons, with messages
containing informational content from commercial bodies (i.e.,
publishers, vendors, agents, etc.). The moderators review submitted
messages for informational content that may interest our subscribers. We
reserve the right to reject messages that are purely for advertising or
product/service solicitation, with little or no informational content
beyond the solicitation, as well as other content that are not within
the scope and purpose guidelines of SERIALST (see:
http://www.uvm.edu/~bmaclenn/serialst.html)
<http://www.uvm.edu/%7Ebmaclenn/serialst.html%29>

If you have thoughts or feedback about the Commercial digest, or other
aspects of SERIALST, please let us hear from you.  Contact information
