‘Publications’ and More Coming to Your Mailbox Soon


The twice-a-year envelope mailing of new booklets, brochures and important information for ASA members is now sent separately from the January and July NEWSLETTER due to postal regulations governing periodical mailings. This change was implemented in January 2000.

You will receive your January envelope mailing within the next few weeks, containing important up-to-date information, including: 2003 ASA Publications and Services Catalogue, information on the 2003 Self-Education and Evaluation (SEE) program, Doctors Day 2003 information and colorful wall poster, information about the Member Only benefits on the ASA Web site, Wood Library-Museum brochure on publications for sale, and Overseas Teaching Program information.
