CHANGES IN ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION
From today on, the "AAIS Product Advisory" e-mail will be issued on Mondays. It
will continue to list all bulletins issued the previous week and go to AAIS affiliates and
non-affiliates who request it.
On Friday,
AAIS affiliates who receive bulletin mailings should have received a new "AAIS
Bulletin Notice." This e-mail indicated what bulletins were issued last week that
recipients are entitled to access electronically, either through AAISdirect or through new
"electronic file cabinets."
AAIS bulletin
recipients were notified of a bulletin issued Friday explaining electronic distribution of
bulletins. If you currently receive bulletins in the mail and did not receive this, or
cannot access it, contact Pat Peters, member services coordinator, at patp@AAISonline.com.
For more information on AAIS's new electronic bulletin distribution, go to http://www.aaisonline.com/services/electronicbulletins.html
PAPER BULLETIN RECIPIENTS: RETURN CONTACT FORM
Persons who are addressees for AAIS paper bulletin mailings need to return the response
form they received with a Sep. 5 letter. (The form was only sent to current bulletin
recipients.)
To ensure that
affiliates receive bulletins properly, AAIS needs to confirm or correct our contact
information. If there is no change to the information on your form, please check the box
indicating so. If the information is inaccurate or out of date, please print the correct
information clearly. Then fax the form to 630/681-8356 or mail it in the business reply
envelope provided.
If you receive
AAIS bulletins but do not have the response form that was mailed to you, contact Pat
Peters, membership services coordinator, at patp@AAISonline.com or by calling
800/564-AAIS, x289.
