CONCH-L
Are you having trouble finding the online
information you need about the hobby of conchology? Do you want
to link up with other shellers? To answer your needs, the Conchologists
of America has established the Conch-List, CONCH-L, the first
Listserv expressly for shell collectors. You can subscribe by
sending your email address immediately. Conch-L will provide
a forum for conchologists, indeed, for anyone with an interest
in mollusks, to discuss any topic related to conchology.
Looking for storage cabinets for your
collection? Want to know how to start a catalog? Do you just
want to talk shells with a like-minded group of people? Or find
a good spot for a shelling vacation? The Conch-L will help you
get it together. Here is your opportunity to interact by email
with conchologists around the world.
Get answers to your questions from other
members, find shellers with similar interests, report new finds
and field observations, help others learn more about our fascinating
hobby. And you can keep up with events in the shell world: messages
about meetings, shell shows, new species, new regulations, software
for the collector, conventions, and exhibitions will be posted
frequently. In fact, CONCH-L will host messages on just about
every aspect of conchology. Your interests and your participation
are our only limitations.
Both beginners and advanced conchologists
alike will find our list server useful. We also invite and encourage
the professional community to participate on CONCH-L. We will,
as always, need you, your interest and your advice.
