Email Lists

Information Services provide an email list system to make group communication much simpler. By using one e-mail address you can send an e-mail to a whole group of users and you don't have to worry about missing someone off.

Setting up an email list

There are a number of email lists - generated automatically every evening from Student System data on AStRA - for staff to use to contact students. Further details about these lists can be found on our student contact lists page.

If these do not meet your needs you can ask to set up, and manage yourself, your own mailing list.

You can set up an email list if you are:

  • a member of staff at the University
  • the holder of a student union club or society account
  • an officer of a hall committee

If you would like to request an email list please email is@aber.ac.uk stating:

  • a name for your list - this must easily identify the purpose of the list
  • a description of what the list will be used for. This will be visible to all members of your list and should clearly explain to them the nature and purpose of the list
  • how long you need the list for (maximum 3 years)
  • who will be responsible for the list
  • who will edit the list if this is different from the responsible owner

Managing your email list

You can administer your email lists through our email list manager. You can find information on managing your email list in our FAQ pages

Viewing the email lists you are on

You are able to view the email lists you are on, and contact the owners of those lists, via our email list manager.
