Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Recieved this on another list.
Thought it might be of interest to anyone who has travel plans.
To one and all;
As many of you know Fort Worth was hit by a tornado this past tuesday.
The Fort Worth Public Library did sustain damage. At this time the
library is closed both to the public and staff. All the glass in the
building was blown out; the air conditioning system was destroyed and
there is water damage. The rare books section of the Genealogy/Local
History/City Archives has had water damage. We have not been able to
get back into the library to see if there is structural damage. Please
advise one and all that if you are planning a research trip to the Fort
Worth Public Library to phone before you come. We are hoping that the staff
will be able to get into the building on monday. I will keep this listserv
updated on the conditions of the library and collection. If anyone has any
questions please have them email me at the address listed here.
Sincerely,
Shirley Apley, Senior Librarian
