New Meeting R*ocedures for Authors (for meetings administered by AMS)

For meetings that have preprint or extended abstracts volumes, only reviewer's abstracts will be required; abstracts will not be published in the BULLETIN.

For meetings that do not have preprint or extended abstracts volumes, both reviewer's abstracts and short abstracts (100 words) for inclusion in an abstract booklet to be distributed at the meeting will be required.

Because of time constraints and escalating costs, AMS will no longer accommodate changes in authors' names, affiliations, paper titles, and/or abstracts once the program has been received at AMS from the program chairman.

R-ograms are now set by computer. Mathematical/chemical equations and/or symbols may not be used in titles and short abstracts. Please substitute words, phrases, or sentences for mathematical and chemical expressions.

Authors are requested to comply with the above procedures.
