How to Form an EGroup

eGroups are the online message boards of a community, designed to send messages to all members of the community. eGroup messages can have attachments, all of which become documents in that Community’s Library. eGroups are restricted to community members. Only members of a community can access the eGroup of that community.

Go to the Directory tab and select All Communities

Select Create a New Community:
Fill in a name for your community/eGroup and hit the Check Availability link to make sure that this group does not already exist:
Type of Community – Select Member Created Group from the dropdown menu
For all members to be able to see and join your community, select APNA Members for both Who can join your Community? and Who can see your community?. If you want your group to be by invitation only you will select the Invite Only option in the first section.

Or:

Remember to check the boxes for eGroup and Library!

Select Save and Invite Members to immediately search for members and invite them to join your eGroup. If you are done, instead select Finish.
Your eGroup will now appear on the eGroups Home page in the Member Created Groups section.
