Hello AIB Colleagues:

Preparations are under way for AIB-1999. One of the most important first steps involves updating our data base of people willing to review papers. If you are interested in participating in the AIB-1999 program committee, please fill out the form and email it back to me. This is a great way for people who are new to AIB to get involved in the Association's activities.

The reviewing process provides authors with the opportunity to get new perspectives on their work and new ideas for how to go forward with their research. The reviewing process also provides important input into the selection of papers for presentation at the conference. High quality reviews provide a critical input to the high quality of the conference presentations.

If you agree to be a reviewer, you should expect to receive about 3 papers in early April. You will have a relatively short turn around time of about 3 weeks, so please be realistic about your ability to get the reviews completed by the end of April.

If you have any questions, please email me at slenway@csom.umn.edu. Also if you would like to be a reviewer for AIB -1999, please fill out the form below and either email or fax it back to me.

Thank you very much for your help with this. I am looking forward to working with our hosts at the University of South Carolina and all of the AIB membership to create an exciting and fun conference.

All the best for the new year,

Stefanie Lenway
AIB-1999 Program Chair
