ListServs
Hundreds of LISTSERVs have developed around Blindness and Visual
Impairment. Joining a LISTSERV is like putting your e-mail address
on a mailing list. When e-mail is sent to the LISTSERV, it is
automatically sent to everyone on the list. The messages and
postings are typically only available to the members of the LIST. The Listserv is a tool to allow you to send a message or a question to a
large group of people at one time. The "Lists" are usually composed
of people with similar interest.
Below are lists that have developed
in Vermont and New Hampshire designed to facilitate communication between
people who are interested in issues relating to blindness and visual
impairment. Current subscribers
of VTBlind and NHBlind-Talk include consumers, parents and other family
members, and professionals.
