The complete CCBC-Net Archives are accessible to all current CCBC-Net subscribers so any of you who wish to catch up on earlier discussions, or reread something you remember from an earlier posting, may do so by requesting a file from the archives, which are indexed monthly by date. Since we have followed the pattern of discussing one topic each month, it is easy to call up the past discussion for a book or author which interests you. To make this process a little easier, I have indexed the index and will give you step-by-step instructions on how to call up the file(s) you want with past discussions.

  To retrieve one of these files, send a message like this:
  TO: IN%:listserv at ccbc.soemadison.wisc.edu
  SUBJECT: get ccbc-net

For example, if you wanted to call up all the discussion on "The Midwife's Apprentice" enter the subject line:

       Get CCBC-Net 11.1995

This will bring up ALL messages sent to CCBC-Net from November 1995, most of which were part of a discussion of "Midwife's Apprentice." In addition, in some cases one month's discussion spilled over into the beginning part of the following month so you might find a bit more of "Walk Two Moons" discussion, for example, at the beginning of August.

We will repeat these instructions and the updated Index to the Index every few months for the benefit of new subscribers. Happy reading!
