ON BECOMING AN NBS MEMBER

  Doug Andrews of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, is a new
  member of the Numismatic Bibliomania Society.  He also
  serves on the American Numismatic Association's Information
  Technology Committee.  He writes:  "Wayne, I want to share
  with you and with non-members the reasons why I recently
  decided to join the NBS.

  There are many fine numismatic organizations today. What
  separates the NBS from the rest, in my opinion -  and why I
  joined - comes down to its innovative use of technology.
  Every week for the past year I have been receiving The
  E-Sylum. Think about it: Every seven days I receive a
  comprehensive, well-written publication that provides useful,
  timely, and accurate reporting on an important aspect of
  numismatics that I enjoy. And it's FREE!

  The NBS is surely going "the extra mile," sending me valuable
  and interesting information and never asking me for anything
  in return.  The E-Sylum goes to roughly 540 recipients every
  week, plus those who receive it from those now on your
  mailing list. That means you can probably double or triple the
  actual number of readers.

  From the NBS's perspective, this is a very sensible and cost-
  effective means of communication and "outreach." Whether
  The E-Sylum goes to 5 or 5,000 readers, the cost is nearly
  constant. At the same time, the value to the organization in
  demonstrating the benefits of joining to potential members
  is fantastic!

  I digress. What better introduction to an organization, and the
  merits of joining it, could there be?  I am somewhat familiar
  with The Asylum and the NBS website. These are two more
  excellent reasons to be an NBS member.

  The E-Sylum reminds me every week what a great organization
  publishes it. I urge every other E-Sylum reader to join, and to
  tell their friends that the Numismatic Bibliomania Society is
  open, accessible, and WANTS them as members!"

  [Instructions for joining are found at the end of each issue of
  The E-Sylum.  I'll repeat them here:  For more information
  please see our web site at http://www.coinbooks.org/  There
  is a membership application available on   the web site.  To
  join, print the application and return it with your check to the
  address printed on the application.

  Thanks, Doug, and welcome to the NBS!  -Editor]
