Unveiling APS Strategic Plan
APS welcomes members' comments on the newly released strategic plan for 2013-2017. We are particularly interested in ideas for implementation.
APS editorial offices on Long Island, New York, need more space. The new offices will hold to the existing "footprint" as our expansion goes up rather than out.
