We spend an oodle of money printing and mailing the Bulletin every month. Approximately 50% of all AML members are currently receiving epublications or are eligible to do so. An extra 27% of AML members have e-mail addresses on file (but presumably have one or more settings put in such a way that they don't get epublications).
Given the above, why don't we give the membership the opportunity to receive their Bulletin online rather than in hardcopy. If we were able to hit 50% of the membership opting to receiving the Bulletin only electronically, we could save somewhere in the vicinity of $150,000 (approximately $3/person worth of dues). Why don't we do that?
If elected as Secretary to AMC, this is certainly one of the things I will try to get implemented.
Excellent suggestion.
