title: Create a virtual community: start an Internet discussion list.
abstract: Internet discussion lists are valuable tools for sharing resources, creating professional relationships, and remaining current in a specialty. Despite the proliferation of health-related lists, there are still school nurse subspecialties and associations that would benefit from professional mailing lists. The process of starting a list is simple and quick. The effort required to manage a list is well worth the benefits of creating a virtual professional school nurse community.
