Albany Alumni Association gets new Web site, doesn’t understand concept of “permanent”
Just got an e-mail from my alumni association. “Permanent” just isn’t what it used to be.
Currently, you are enjoying several perks as a member of the UAlbany alumni online community; one of these is the permanent email/email forwarding feature. Unfortunately, this specific component is not offered by the new company we are working with. If you’re utilizing the Albany.edu permanent email feature now, please be aware that this will no longer be available after July 10. Users of this feature will need to begin making email-related adjustments as needed, so that you continue to receive your emails (most likely at a personal account through Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail.)
Michael Sauers is the Director of Logan Library in Logan, UT. Prior to this he was one of the founding staff and Technology Manager for Do Space in Omaha, NE. After earning his MLS in 1995 from the University at Albany's School of Information Science and Policy Michael spent his first 20 years as a librarian training other librarians in technology along with time as a public library trustee, a bookstore manager for a library friends group, a reference librarian, a technology consultant, and a bookseller.
