Thank you for your continued support of the Association for Latin American Art.

Listserv

The Association for Latin American Art maintains a listserv to facilitate discussion and to distribute announcements on events, publications, and exhibitions to members.

Non-members with items for the list are encouraged to contact Eleanor Laughlin at elaughlin@ufl.edu to be added or removed from the listserv.

Members in good standing may post messages directly to the list by writing to alaa-L@lists.ufl.edu.

ALAA Listserv Tips

ALAA members can send messages directly to the ALAA membership through the listserv. However, the listserv will only allow you to send from the email address you used when registering. If you would like to change your email information on file, please contact the Listserv Master. The address to send a message to the listserv is ALAA-L@lists.ufl.edu

The listserv has one known complication for gmail users: they will not receive a copy of their own posting when they submit a message to the listserv.

If you have a problem using the listserv, please contact the Listserv Master with as many details as possible, including:

  • The email address you registered with ALAA and the address you used to post to the listserv
  • The exact error message you received from the ALAA listserv
  • The detailed steps of your process
    • i.e. if you were attaching a document to your message, indicate whether you dragged and dropped the file or used the “attach” (paperclip) button
  • Are you using a forwarding address?
    • i.e. are you forwarding emails from your Google address to your Outlook email or vice versa?
  • Your computer type
    • PC or Mac?

Please contact me if you have any questions!
