Background

The CSCC listserv is maintained through the Queen’s University server (lists.queensu.ca). It is open to all members of the CSCC.

Posted information currently is not filtered and all content submitted to the listserv is automatically distributed to subscribers via the subscriber’s email account.  Subscribers may remove themselves from participating by contacting the listserv and requesting to be unsubscribed.

 

The CSCC listserv is intended to be an educational forum that allows subscribers to remotely participate in discussions.  Discussion topics are determined by subscriber’s postings on the listserv. Topics are vast and currently fall under the following categories:
1. Searching for a reference laboratory to perform a specific test
2. Preanalytical
3. Analytical
4. Vendor and product availability
5. Method (SOP) sharing
6. Polling questions for consensus building
7. Announcements from CSCC Head Office

How to join the listserv

4. Members posting to the listserv must include their full name.

  1. Submit a copy of the posting with brief explanation to CSCC Head Office in the form of an email message (info@cscc.ca).
  2. CSCC Head Office will direct the concern to Head of Publications.
  3. Head of Publications will determine whether to contact the author of the posting and notify them of their inappropriate posting.  If it is unclear how to proceed, Head of Publications may consult CSCC Executive in determining the appropriateness of the posting, and this will be determined by the impact of the posting on the face of the CSCC.  In some cases, the author of the posting may have their listserv subscription privileges suspended.
