Newsletter - Paper edition issues • Costs are high (color printing, postage, etc.), forecasting potential overrun (2001 income $1060, expenses $1600) • Possible solution to handle costs: • Reduce the # of paper editions by producing 2 editions which will be "special editions” • Special editions - the election newsletter (paper is required for the ballot) and one other “special” time of year • Holidays (December) • First one of the new year (January/February) • Post HFES Annual Meeting (October) • have 1 or 2 additional electronic newsletters
