Six Members Join AAMA Virtual Library
January 31, 2012Interest in the AAMA Virtual Library continues to grow. The following six companies have already taken advantage of this program, and many others requested more information when given the opportunity to participate as part of their membership renewal.
The AAMA Virtual Library (AVL) offers a system for members to purchase annual licenses in order to make electronic versions of AAMA publications more readily available to their employees.“All electronic document licenses are available online through AAMA’s website. This offers easy access to AAMA documents that are referenced frequently by a participating company’s employees,” says Andrea Rhodes, AAMA Technical Operations Supervisor.
The AVL includes 15 document sets that are viewable with Adobe Flash software. Document groupings include topics such as windows and sliding glass doors, metal curtain walls, storefront & entrance manual, skylights and space enclosures, as well as vinyl and polymer resource set and the 101/NAFS documents. Also available are document bundles for finishes, hardware, general testing, field testing and laboratory testing.
The AVL is only offered to AAMA Category 1 corporate members, technical consultant and professional members. Agreements are offered on a one-year basis that requires renewal on the anniversary of the license agreement. Each company will have a login and password, which will include the AVL agreement and links to the AAMA documents purchased.
If a publication is revised and re-published during the life of an active license agreement, a notice will be sent to licensees, and the online AVL will be updated automatically.
If you would like further information about the AAMA Virtual Library or feel your company could benefit from this program, please contact Andrea Rhodes, AAMA Technical Operations Supervisor, or visit www.aamanet.org/AVL.
