Two new eNewsletters released this month: Power Generation and Synthetics & Hydraulics!

In case you've missed them, we have now launched 5 eNewsletters that focus on a specific topic relevant to lubrication engineers and tribologists. Among those, we have Metalworking & Metalworking Fluids, Grease, Environmentally Friendly Fluids (EFF), and two brand-new ones out this month: Power Generation and Synthetics & Hydraulics.

You can read more about the program launch here - STLE's Executive Director provides his perspective in September's Headquarters Report column.

If you didn't receive any of the newsletters and you're interested in subscribing, you can do so by logging in to your account at www.stle.org, and updating your demographic information. There is a list of interest areas, and you can select one or many, depending on your interests. If you do not have an account, you will need to create one and then update your demographic information.

We're still looking for contributors to be able to launch our other 4: Lubrication Fundamentals, Engine & Drivetrain, Condition Monitoring, and Bearings, Gears & Seals. If you're interested in contributing, we're looking for short articles (about 1 page, or 400-800 words), on a specific topic that provides best practices, case studies, or other practical information that readers can immediately use. Submitted articles should be educational in nature, not commercial (i.e. not promoting your company or product) and they should not be technical papers. Technical papers have many other outlets including our two scholarly journals: Tribology Transactions and Tribology Letters). If you are interested, you can send an email to Kara Sniegowski at ksniegowski@stle.org or by calling our office at (847) 825-5536.

I look forward to your contributions! And feel free to submit topic ideas below, in the comments.
