[OKRA] OKRA Listserv Guidelines

[EllenBussert at aol.com]

You  are one of about 600 subscribers to the OKrecycles email list 
administered by  OKRA.  As a listserv member, you may post messages to the list; 
however,  given the number of subscribers, it will be important for us to 
follow a few  guidelines when posting. 
How  to Post a Message:

To post to this listserv, you may send your  message to: 
_okrecycles at recycleok.org_ (mailto:okrecycles at recycleok.org)  
Your  message will then be reviewed by a listserv administrator, according 
to the  guidelines below.  We are volunteers, so keep in mind that it may 
take a  while for your message to be posted.  

Posting  Guidelines:

-Messages will be approved if they concern recycling  issues that affect 
Oklahomans.   
-Do not post political messages.  As a non-profit  501(c)(3) organization, 
political postings could  jeopardize our status.  Let's also be courteous to 
members of the listserv  who may hold different political views.

-Do not post "forwards" or  links unless they meet the criteria in these 
guidelines (if posting  forwards or links, include a short description and how 
the information concerns  us in Oklahoma).

-No advertisements or items for sale will be approved  for posting 
(exceptions may occasionally be made for OKRA members to advertise  the sale of 
second-hand recycling equipment.) 
-Examples of approvable postings include:  Announcements  of OKRA meetings, 
events, activities, issues and volunteer  opportunities; carpool offers or 
requests for rides to OKRA meetings,  events and activities; promotion of 
other local meetings, events, activities,  issues and volunteer opportunities 
that are in line with our mission; recycling  news that may be of interest 
to Oklahomans. 
-Approved  posting examples can be found by browsing our listserv archives:

(http://frodo.syminet.com/pipermail/okrecycles)  
-If  you wish to respond to a posting, please respond directly to the 
person who  posted, rather than the listserv (unless your response is relevant to 
the entire  listserv).

Our  experience has been that people unsubscribe from listservs that are 
too busy or not representative of  the group's mission.  Let's keep our 
listserv relevant, inclusive, friendly  and on task.

Thank you for your cooperation.  If you have  comments/suggestions about 
these guidelines, please email _info at recycleok.org_ 
(mailto:info at recycleok.org)  

Ellen  Bussert 
OKRA  Secretary
