>         The Information Revolution is bringing dramatic changes in
the
>    communications infrastructure worldwide, especially the Internet
>    system that links academics together in a fast, free and friendly
>    environment.  H-Net is an international initiative to assist
>    scholars to go on-line, using their personal computers. We operate
>    daily newsletters edited by some 140 scholars in North America,
>    Europe, Africa, and the Pacific.
>         H-Net sponsors 70 electronic discussion groups or "lists" by
>    and for professional scholars in the humanities and social
>    sciences.  Subscribers automatically receive messages in their
>    computer mailboxes. These messages can be saved, discarded,
>    downloaded to a PC, copied, printed out, or relayed to someone
>    else.  Best of all, the reader can immediately REPLY.  The lists
>    are email newsletters that are published daily. There is currently
>    no subscription charge or fee of any kind.
>         H-Net lists reach over 30,000 subscribers in 61 countries.
>    Each lists publishes 15-60 messages a week. Subscription
>    applications are solicited from scholars, college professors,
>    researchers, graduate students, librarians and archivists.  Each
>    list is edited by a team of scholars and has a board of editors;
>    most of the lists are cosponsored by a professional society.  The
>    editors control the flow of messages, commission reviews, and
>    reject flames and items unsuitable for a scholarly discussion
>    group.  They also control H-Net, which has financial support from
>    the National Endowment for the Humanities, and is hosted by
>    Michigan State University, the University of Illinois-Chicago, and
>    several other schools.
>         The goals of H-NET lists are to enable scholars to easily
>    communicate current research and teaching interests; to discuss
new
>    approaches, methods and tools of analysis; to share information on
>    electronic databases; and to test new ideas and share comments on
>    current historiography.   H-Net was created to provide a positive,
>    supportive, equalitarian environment for the friendly exchange of
>    ideas and scholarly resources.  The lists feature dialogues in the
>    discipline. They commission original book and museum reviews, and
>    post job announcements, syllabi, course outlines, class handouts,
>    bibliographies, listings of new sources, guides to online library
>    catalogs and Internet resources, and reports on new software,
>    datasets, cd-roms and World Wide Web sites.  Regular reports from
>    Washington cover developments that affect the humanities.
>    Subscribers write in with questions, comments, and reports, and
>    sometimes with mini-essays of a page or two. The logs of all
>    messages are permanently saved and can easily be searched.
>    Important items are permanently stored for easy access via gopher
>    and [soon] WWW.
