Consider the ASI Web site. It is one of our foremost member benefits. It is ASI's first impression to many prospective new members, and a most professional and polished impression that is. Initially, Web support was the responsibility of a single Webmaster. Web support is excellent and no one person is overly burdened.
Publicity is another notable effort.
Since June of 1999, ASI's publicity efforts have been ably led by Mary Mortensen. Mary has also increased ASI's presence in the publishing community. We had an exhibit at the Publishers Association of the West conference in November 2000. Two Colorado chapter members, Doreen McLaughlin and Lucie Haskins, staffed the booth for the entire three days. And, last but not least, our Albuquerque conference was the subject of a C-SPAN2 BookTV broadcast in August.
