Maureen,
Please commend AFB for their commitment to the field of blindness and the
professionals in the field who rely on professional literature. This is a
commendable gesture on their part, and we are very appreciative.

Hello Listers:
As a VRT and as an Associate Editor of JVIB, I'd like to share this
information with you, as a follow-up to the recent announcement by the AER
Board
of Directors to suspend the online JVIB subscription as an AER member
benefit. To follow this discussion and to share any feedback you might have, I
suggest you post your comments to the AER Listserv, where they will reach
the appropriate audience.
An Important Message from the American Foundation for the Blind:
Effective immediately, AFB Press will offer all professionals a new $25
individual subscription fee for online access to the Journal of Visual
Impairment & Blindness (JVIB) and $65 for a combined print and online
subscription. To allow for a new subscription process to be put in place
following
the AER decision to terminate JVIB as a member benefit, AFB Press will
provide continuous access to JVIB during the months of April and May to our
readership. Readers can log on using the generic "AER, AER" user name and
password.
During the month of May, JVIB's readership will be invited to join the
JVIB community by contacting AFB Press directly and taking advantage of the
new, reduced subscription rates for individual subscribers. At that time,
AFB Press will provide additional information about how readers can formally
sign up for their new subscriptions. In the meantime, please contact
afbpress@xxxxxxx with any questions you might have.
AER members who have print add-on subscriptions to the journal will be
receiving their April print issue in the mail. Questions about your AER
membership or the JVIB add-on print subscription arranged by AER should be
addressed to the AER office directly.
Thank you for your support of JVIB, and we look forward to continuing our
relationship with you, our valued readers.
