Gilboa Fossils (home page)	Exploring Fossils

NEW: Audio files of most of articles are available by clicking on a related Audio File link. The audio format was developed primarily for those with sight deficiencies, but they may also be useful for listening in your car. Please give us feedback as to the utility of the audio format for you.

The cost of the Newsletter has been underwritten by contributions from the A. Lindsay & Olive B. O’Connor Foundation, New York State Department of Environmental Protection, the Towns of Gilboa and Conesville, the New York Power Authority, and the Gilboa Historical Society. Please thank these people and organizations for their support!

Starting with the fall (September 1, 2009) issue, we will mail print or electronic copies only to people who contact us and request to be maintained on the mailing list. We do not want to turn people away, but we would like to save costs (and trees) my mailing only to those who are interested.

1. If you do NOT want to receive either version, do nothing and you will be dropped from the mail list.
2. If you want to receive the hard copy, please fill out the membership application and check the “Physical” box.Then make sure your address information (and a regular winter address if applicable) is complete and accurate. Filling in your email address will enroll you in the ENewsletter as well.
3. If you want to receive the electronic ENewsletter, please fill out the membership application, check the “Electronic” box, and make sure your email address is complete and accurate. Alternatively, you can email your request to gerrys@gilboahome.com.

Subscription to the Newsletter is free, but don’t let this stop you from joining the 2009 Historical Society.

What Is an Electronic Subscription?

An electronic subscription is an email sent to you with a brief description and link to each new publication. You can read them online or download them to your computer. We make an effort to keep the files small, but electronic subscription is not ideal if you are limited to a dial-up Internet connection. The libraries in Stamford and Middleburgh have high-speed Internet so you can read it at the library or download the ENewsletter onto a thumb drive.

Benefits of an Electronic Subscription

1. Electronic subscription can save our publication by cutting print and mail costs.
2. Electronic subscribers receive email links to access each issue of the Newsletter before it is physically published—accessing it promptly means that you will receive the same ENewsletter 2 to 3 weeks before your snail-mail neighbors.
3. You will receive notice of individual articles as they are finished, some of which may not be scheduled for publication within any foreseeable Newsletter.
4. In addition, you will receive notice of podcast interviews with seniors in the area, and be kept abreast of the development of information in support of the pictures of old Gilboa.
5. We will also use this maillist for sending you reminders of Gilboa Historical Society activities and cancellations.
