The Coastal Society Bulletin
The Coastal Society's Bulletin has been published since 1977, serving as the organization's primary communication vehicle. Currently published four times a year, the electronic newsletter strives to be a useful tool for its members. Each issue includes articles on current coastal management issues, updates regarding news about the organization as well as news items from around the coasts, announcements of upcoming meetings and conferences, news from the Society's student chapters and reports on coastal related legal developments.
The Editor-in-Chief for the Bulletin is Ellen Gordon. Contributions to the Bulletin are encouraged.
E-Distribution of Bulletin
Email distribution of the The Coastal Society Bulletin began with Volume 23, Issue 2 distributed in Acrobat portable document format (PDF) - a free PDF reader is available from Adobe at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.
HTML versions of the Bulletin became available with Volume 26(3).
We hope that e-distribution will provide you with quicker access to news and information regarding coastal matters.
