lis‐link is the primary electronic discussion forum for the Library and Information Science (LIS) community in the UK. The list has been active since May 1991, and now has a membership of over 2500 individuals, generating over 3000 messages annually. This article examines the historical origins of the list, the purpose and community it serves, and illustrates the development of lis‐link over time.
