New student association blog

Hi everyone,

Welcome to the new, completely informal, unofficial student association blog.

After Philosophy and Practice today, some of us were discussing the fact that we, as a student body, have no way of sharing information outside of class. We decided that we need a central place where students can share information, ask questions and discuss whatever is of interest to us. We thought a blog might be a good way for us to communicate with each other and we brainstormed the name - Association des Étudiant(e)s des Sciences de l'Information / Information Studies Student Association (AESISSA).

If you want to be able to post new topics, please send your email address to AESISSA@gmail.com and you will be sent an invitation to be an author on the blog. Your email address will be used to send you an invitation only, it will not be visible on the blog (you can also create a new email address in gmail or yahoo mail if you want to keep your current one private). If you don't want to use your email address but you still want to post something, you can email it to AESISSA with the subject line 'Please Post' and it will be posted for you.

If you have any comments or questions, you can put them in the comments section below, or email them to AESISSA. Emails to AESISSA will only be posted here if the author requests. Any comments you make on blog posts when you're signed in under the 'UOSISblog' username will show the name 'SIS', so don't forget to sign your name to your comments.

Right now emails sent to AESISSA go to me because I volunteered to set up the blog. We'll have to decide as a group who should take responsibility for overseeing it in the future.

Celine requested that I add (and she's absolutely right): Please feel free to comment or post in whichever language you prefer. This space is bilingual. If anyone wants to translate this message for me, please feel free.

Let's make this space our own!
