Thank you for reading Society Connections. Society Connections is an official publication of ASHRAE. This electronic newsletter links the communities of ASHRAE and provides a simple way for members to connect with the Society. Society Connections is published on the second Wednesday of each month. About ASHRAE Education Certification Publications Member Resources Technology ASHRAE News New Insights Schedule Due to rising printing and postage costs, ASHRAE is switching the publication schedule of ASHRAE Insights to every other month. Members will receive their next Insights in August. "Just like private companies, ASHRAE is working hard to balance continued member and customer services with fiscal responsibility in today’s economy," said W. Stephen Comstock, ASHRAE publisher. "We are exploring ways to provide the same or more information to the membership using other communications media, such as print, ASHRAE.org and electronic newsletters." ASHRAE Insights has been printed each month since first being published in 1986. All articles from the published version can be found online at www.ashrae.org/insights.
