    ANSWERS

    1. Who can join AMM?
      In general, medical journal publishers and companies who provide them with professional services may join. For more details please see our membership page.
    2. Why is it important to be a member of AMM?
      United through AMM, the medical journal publishing industry will achieve brilliant success, and all of our companies will remain viable and relevant for many years to come. Visit our Value of Membership page to find out more.
    3. How can my company join AMM?
      Call or email our Membership Coordinator, Alison Bohn:
      856-380-6814, abohn@ammonline.org
    4. Where does AMM hold its monthly meetings?
      Nearly all AMM meetings are held at the Ney Center:
      Young & Rubicam Building
      285 Madison Avenue
      (Between 40th & 41st – a few blocks from Grand Central Station)
      New York, NY 10017
      We'll let you know if there's a different venue for a certain meeting.
      For meeting information send email to our Meeting Coordinator.
    5. What does it cost to attend an AMM meeting?
      All representatives of member companies, advertisers, agencies and media buyers may attend at no cost. Representatives of non-member publishers and other non-member companies will be asked to pay $100 for pre-registration, $125 at the door.
    6. What happens at AMM meetings?
      First there's an informal socializing and networking opportunity with refreshments. When the President calls the meeting to order there's usually a brief introduction and then either a panel discussion or at least two individual speakers. The topics are always timely, educational, and of vital interest to all of us who work in the medical journal publishing industry. You can view past presentations here.
    7. Is it important for everyone at a member company to attend AMM's meetings?
      It is certainly desirable for everyone to attend. That way all colleagues gain the same knowledge and have the same perspective for carrying out the objectives of their publications. AMM meetings are also great opportunities for face-to-face networking.
    8. If I have to miss a meeting, can I still get the slide presentations?
      Yes. The slides are usually available in our presentation archive a day or two after each meeting. The only exceptions occur when the material presented is proprietary and therefore not public.
    9. As a member, how do I register to attend an AMM meeting?
      We always send out meeting invitations well in advance of our meetings. They include links to our registration forms. If you're a member you should be on our mailing list. Note: It's important to register in advance so we know how many people to prepare for, even though members attend at no charge. However, if you find at the last minute that you can attend, we will welcome you.  All attendees must have photo i.d. and check in with security to gain admittance to the building. If you have questions about any meeting, please contact AMM's Meeting Coordinator, BreAnne Clark:
      856-380-6814, meetings@ammonline.org
    10. What if I'm not an AMM member but would like to attend a meeting?
      If you've received a meeting invitation, just click the link and fill in the registration form.  If you haven't received an invitation but would like to attend, simply contact AMM's Meeting Coordinator, Alison Bohn:
      856-380-6814, meetings@ammonline.org  All attendees must have photo i.d. and check in with security to gain admittance to the building.
    11. I really believe in AMM's mission and would like to be more involved. What can I do?
      We welcome you to join one of AMM's committees.  They are listed on our committee page, along with contact information for the members and chairpeople.
    12. What if I want to communicate with other AMM members?
      Join our LinkedIn Group and visit us on Facebook. If you'd like updates, follow AMM on Twitter.
