Listserv Resources

Listserv provides an easy way to create mailing lists. These lists can be used for email-based distribution of information, discussion, Q&A, and similar purposes. Lists are created and “owned” by a user who manages the list’s behavior and subscribers. List members are subscribed either by the list owner or by following instructions provided by the list owner.
