Went to the AKC website and found this in the delegate's meeting section:
It was proposed that AKC Gazette & Events be reformatted, transitioning from
a print magazine
to a PDF document posted monthly to the AKC web site. Effective with the
October, 2011 issue,
this new incarnation of the AKC Gazette would include the Chairman's and
President's letters,
AKC Updates, the Parent Club breed columns ( these columns will be enhanced
with links to
the Parent Clubs' web sites), and the Secretary's Pages. This electronic
version of the AKC
Gazette would be available for free with access to all and be posted on the
Delegates Portal. All
club members, fanciers and dog lovers will have regular free access to the
very popular breed
columns. Subscribers who currently pay for the print edition will have the
subscription converted
to Family Dog or the option of a pro-rata refund. This change will be a
highly cost effective way
to perpetuate the most vital Gazette content and make it available to a
significantly wider
audience. Other content in the current print magazine, e.g. AKC Delegate and
Board meeting
minutes, will continue to be posted and archived on the AKC web site.
The Show Awards CD will be replaced by equivalent online reports that will
be available through
the web site. This transition will be effective in January 2012.
All of these changes are designed to best leverage AKC content, serve a
broader constituency
and bring AKC publications into the digital age.
Following a motion by Dr Davies, seconded by Mr. Amen, it was VOTED
(unanimously) to adopt
the above proposal.
