TLA PROMPTBOOK
TLA PROMPTBOOK is an infrequent, brief, and informative email alert for the members of Theatre Library Association; detailed information and announcements will be published in BROADSIDE as usual. We promise not to deluge your mailboxes with more e-clutter than necessary. The TLA-L listserv continues as a forum for unmoderated discussion of issues related to performing arts collections, open by subscription to TLA members and non-members alike.
If you are a TLA member in good standing and are not receiving the TLA PROMPTBOOK alerts, or would like to change the email address to which they are sent, please contact info@tla-online.org.
