ARIA membership renewal problems Many of you have informed the Executive Office that problems exist with membership renewals, such as an incorrect amount, inability to renew online, or receiving a receipt with no mention of ARIA membership. Wiley-Blackwell completely revamped Blackwell’s membership operations when the two publishers merged. All is not going well, but Wiley-Blackwell is working to solve the problems. Those who have not yet submitted their 2009 membership renewal should delay any further action until you receive notification from the Executive Office. We thank you for your patience and understanding.
Upcoming ARIA Mid-Year Board Meeting
ARIA’s Mid-Year Board Meeting will take place in a few weeks. If ARIA members have any issues for Board discussion, please provide the Executive Office with your thoughts or concerns by January 15 at aria@cpcuiia.org
