AAP
AAP’s mandate covers both the general and the specific broad issues important to all publishers as well as issues of specific concern to particular segments of the industry.
The Association’s “core” programs deal with matters of general interest:intellectual property; new technology and telecommunications issues of concern to publishers; First Amendment rights, censorship and libel; international freedom to publish; funding for education and libraries; postal rates and regulations; tax and trade policy.
Directed by standing committees of the Association, these programs, along with a host of membership services including government affairs, a broad-based statistical program, public information and press relations, are the “core” activities of the Association.
