I recently posted a call for enrollment in IABS. This is a reminder that you will need to enroll by January 16^th in order to receive all four 2008 issues of Business & Society. You can easily apply or renew by visiting our application system at http://www.pdcnet.org/member-iabs.html.

A few features of IABS:
