I recently received my 1999 ABC Registry and Reference Guide. To my
surprise, there were a number of full page advertisements by members of the
trade association in the Registry. I find this very disturbing. There
should be separation of the trade and professional areas in this field. By
advertising in the registry, that separation is not present. There is
implicit endorsement of the suppliers used by ABC for adverising. I
understand that the advertising will help offset the costs for publication,
but that should be covered by our dues.
I'm eager to hear the responses of other ABC practitioners!
