From the Vice President for Communications and Technology

The Newsletter of the American Dialect Society (NADS) cannot be sustained: postage costs have increased, editorial material has been scarce, and ADS members increasingly look for news on the Web rather than in their mailboxes.So, the ADS Executive Committee has decided to discontinue NADS, in both print and PDF formats; yet there is still a need for something like NADS.Although the ADS Web site serves many of the same purposes as NADS, it is useful only if members think to check it at the right times for certain information (calls for papers and other deadlines, for instance).Forgetful as we all are, many ADS members would appreciate timely announcements or reminders of ADS-related business and activities.The best way to disseminate these nowadays is via an e-mail list.A new e-mail list, called ADS-M, has been established in order to serve this purpose
