EDINA newsline
June 2008: Volume 13 Issue 2
Here at Digimap, we have been exploring alternatives to email as means of distributing information about the service. To this end, we have created the Digimap Blog.
We will use the blog to publish information relating to the availability of all Digimap Collections, forthcoming changes to services, data updates, answers to frequently asked questions, reminders of copyright and licence conditions, where to seek assistance, and suchlike. All the information will be available elsewhere, but the blog will highlight particularly topical issues and provide both reminders, answers and pointers to further information.
This will not be the sole means of disseminating important information about Digimap Collections. We will continue to send emails relating to service availability, forthcoming service changes and data updates when appropriate. The blog is an additional communication channel, aiming to reach both staff, site representatives and students, and to provide an additional source of assistance with all Digimap Collections.
The blog has an RSS feed, to which you can subscribe by following the links on the blog. You can also leave comments on each post, or contact EDINA directly (by phone or by email) about the subject of any post.
Since the original publication of this article the Digimap blog has moved to a new platform, EDINA's own blogging environment based on Wordpress software.
