Re: Newsletter
and email alerts: Institutional members may be eligible
to receive more than one newsletter and to have more than
one staff member on MPMA's E-News Service. You must, however,
provide MPMA with names and addressees (mail and email) of
staff. We suggest you designate a staff member as MPMA Membership
Coordinator to coordinate this. Number of newsletter and emails
is based upon the dues your institution pays. Look at the
following dues structure to see what you may receive:
$50-$100 = 1 newsletter
and # of staff to receive e-mail alerts
$150-$200 = 2 newsletter and # of staff to receive e-mail
alerts
$250-$300 = 3 newsletter and # of staff to receive e-mail
alerts
