Aw crap, I just read in the latest issue of TL Infobits that Carolyn Kotlas’s position at UNC Chapel Hill has been eliminated, and as a result Infobits is folding as well. From the editor’s note:
This will be the next to the last issue of TL Infobits. My position at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has been eliminated, and I will leave employment here in December. Since its beginning in 1993, Infobits has always been a one-person endeavor, and so with my departure, Infobits will leave the ITS Teaching and Learning division as well.
It has been my privilege and pleasure to provide this service to my readers over the years. The newsletter has given me a chance to reach out to the academic community on and beyond my own campus. It has enabled me to take my information hunting and gathering skills beyond just satisfying my own curiosity, thus sharing my interests in IT for academics with others. And, not least, I have been able to meet, although only virtually, many dedicated, interesting people who have encouraged my work with their kind comments.
In the event that Infobits resurfaces in a new home, there will be more information in the November issue.
— Carolyn Kotlas, Infobits Editor
We’ll miss you Carolyn, thanks for the great service over the years. Somebody please hire her quickly!
