Anne Malena replied to the topic Seeking Your Feedback Regarding the MLA Commons in the discussion
LLC Southern United States via email on MLA Commons 5 years, 6 months agoHi Kirstin,
Actually, it’s not that hard to use but I don’t think of it unless I’m
prompted as I have been by Joseph’s response to you. Is there a way that I
would receive notice of the topic? Perhaps I did and ignored it but I
originally joined the group to keep appraised of what is being researched
and discussed. Best, Anne -

I sent you a reply on here the day you posted, but it doesn’t seem to be on here. This was the main issue I raised with MLA Commons; it is difficult to use, so nobody uses it. I use it as a webpage only because I don’t have one as a retiree. Best wishes on this request, but I bet mine will be your only response.
