If I may add my two cents worth, I think most of us do unsubscribe when
we leave town. But, we don't (or at least I don't) when we're flying
out the door at the last minute to get to a Dr.'s appointment and still
need to use our "out of office reply" to let our organizations know that
we're gone for a few hours or the rest of the day. I agree it's an
annoyance, but really it only takes a second to hit the delete key.

re: out of office replies: Nope. We've tried for years to tell
librarians to UNSUBSCRIBE before they leave town, but .... To me though,
it's a small price to pay for the joy of being able to call on my fellow
librarians for their expertise. And isn't it nice that they don't want
to miss a single law-lib message even though they are out of town
(personally, though, I unsubscribe - there is a limit! :-)
re: My real gripe (mild): Yours is at least the 3rd "thank you"
message posted this week where the person who posted the question
neglected to post the ANSWER for the rest of us to learn from. PLEASE,
everyone, don't just say thank you, if there is the slightest chance
that at least one other law-lib member might like to know the answer to
the question you posted. Post the answer! Just because a couple people
respond to the list, doesn't mean the perfect answer didn't go to you
and you only. A lot of people are Reply-All-shy. So strip out the
personal data, but post the responses.
Many thanks,
Laura

Subject: RE: LexisNexis account consolidation
Thanks for all the helpful comments.
Is there a way to send a message to law-lib without
getting 25 out-of-office replies in return?
