Need a
colleague's e-mail address and don't know
where to find it?
Here are several ways:
- 1. This
question comes up often on professional
discussion lists. If the colleague is a
member of the list you belong to, performing
a REVIEW command will return a list of the
user names and e-mail addresses of all
current list members. To do this on APA
lists, send a message to the list server
(not the list itself), which for APA lists
is <listserv@lists.apa.org> with ONLY the
words REVIEW and the name of the list. For
example, for the DIV42 Independent Practice
list, the command would be REVIEW DIV42,
placed in the subject and message fields.
For other APA lists, the procedure is
similar.
- 2. Search
the APA membership directory. In addition to
the directory, there is also a voluntary
opt-in directory of members' e-mail
addresses, which may or may not be more
current than the membership directory. APA's
membership directory and optional
e-mail directory are available at
http://members.apa.org
- 3. Search
the colleague's state online license
verification database if one is available.
All states that have license verification
links are listed at

- 4. Search
the colleague's APA state association
website for those associations that have
websites (some don't). See
http://www.assessmentpsychology.com/spa.htm
- 5. For
colleagues who are affiliated with a
university, search the university's e-mail
directory. A list of all U.S. and Canadian
universities and community colleges is
available at
http://www.assessmentpsychology.com/psychsearch.htm
- 6. Search
the various practitioner directories on the
web. This could include the National
Register and/or various free practitioner
directories. One of the more comprehensive
is the National Directory of Psychologists
at
http://psychologyinfo.com/directory
- 7. A final
method is to do a Google Web search and/or
e-mail address Web search. One of the better
e-mail search engines is the metasearch
engine at
http://www.addresses.com
