Step 1
Log in to your paid ACBS account. (Already logged in? Great! Proceed to Step 2.)

After you log in click (at the upper right) “My Account”, you’ll see your general info. If there is no “Manage my Group Subscriptions” tab, next to “Edit”, then your membership has lapsed and you need to go here to renew.

Step 2

Once you have opened the SIG or Chapter Membership form, simply click the box next to the Chapter(s) or SIG(s) you're interested in.
All SIGs have ACBS listservs, but all chapters do not. Chapters with ACBS listservs will say "XXX Chapter and Listserv".
Please keep in mind the default when joining is “Summary Digests”. This means you will receive one email per day including all posts and replies within the past 24 hours from the listserv you have subscribed to. To change this, go to Step 3 below.
Step 3
Please contact ACBS staff to update your listserv subscriptions and preferences. Make sure to select the email subject "Listserv subscription/delivery preference".
Delivery preferences include:
- Individual emails - Receive individual emails of all posts and replies to the listserv
- Digest email - Receive one email per day including all posts and replies within the past 24 hours
- Plain text digest email - If you have been receiving the digest emails as an attachment, select this version to receive them in plain text format
- No email - Access the listserv online only, but still receive messages from Chapter/SIG leadership
Remember, the emails will go the email address on your ACBS Member account. To update your email address Log in, click "Contact Details" on the left side menu, update your email, then save.
