CARLI has determined that our email list software has not been reliably sending out email digests to those individuals who have subscribed to our email lists in digest format. To correct this problem, CARLI staff made a change to the email list software configurations on Friday, July 19 that likely caused the next digest sent out subscribers to contain older posts.  The dates of the original emails are present in the digest text. This change is necessary to ensure that future email list digests are delivered in a timely manner with only relevant posts.
