Discuss Scottish Music Research with Musica Scotica

Did you miss Musica Scotica 2017?

You missed a great event! But you can still talk about Scottish music with fellow researchers, whether you study ancient or avant-garde music.

MUSICA SCOTICA GETS A JISCMAIL DISCUSSION LIST

JiscMail offers the facility to set up discussion lists about education or research interests on a particular topic, carried out by email. Correspondents generally have some connection with higher education, but this is not compulsory. There's now a list for sharing information about education or research interests in Scottish music, and the groupname is MusicaScotica.
  • What is JiscMail? Visit http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/about/whatisjiscmail.html 
  • How  do I subscribe? You'll find instructions at the FAQ for Subscribers page: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/help/subscribers/faq.html  Basically, you either visit the JiscMail homepage and choose MusicaScotica from there, or send an email to listserv@jiscmail.ac.uk with the following command in the subject line, substituting your own name:-  SUBSCRIBE MUSICA SCOTICA YOURFIRSTNAME YOURLASTNAME
  • Can I use institutional access? Certainly. If you're in a British HE institution, you can use institutional access (Shibboleth), as you would with most electronic resources.
  • You'll find Netiquette suggestions towards the bottom of the FAQ page. (Basically, keep it relevant, be polite, and remember this is a public list for sharing information about education or research interests in Scottish music.)

How to Get Out of a JISC Mailing List

The eager beavers amongst us eagerly sign up to mailing lists, with the best of intentions. However, sometimes we change our minds. 

And then can't work out how to get out of the list(s)! 

How to unsubscribe from a Jiscmail list

  1. If  you don’t think a particular Jiscmail list is for you, then go to Jiscmail, log in (there may be an institutional login for your institution and then you would enter your usual institutional user name and password).
  2. Go to Subscriber’s Corner.
  3. Click on the list you want to leave - you won't offend anyone!
  4. Click the Unsubscribe button.
And if you have forgotten your login?


This is the unsubscribe page with instructions for what to do if you’ve forgotten your password.  (It assumes you know your own email address!):- CLICK HERE.
