The publishers hope that use of this Directory will promote communication research, encourage young people to enter careers inthe communication field, and result in broader interassociation and intercenter contacts and'cooperation than have been possible in the past. The usefulness of this Directory is, of course, a direct function of its accuracy and completeness. We have tried to make it as complete and as accurate as permitted by the information supplied to us. Many associations and centers have more abbreviated listings than we would like because of lack of information. The editor will very much appreciate being sent more complete information by any association or center or by any organization that should be listed in the Directory for use in the next edition. He will also appreciate having errors and omissions in this edition drawn to his attention. This Directory is the successor to the Directory of Communication Organizations 1970-71, which was published in November 1970. The Council expects to reissue this Directory periodically, but not annually. The date of the next edition has not yet been established. V. M.

The letter in squire brackets following the name of some of the associations indicates the type of organization it Is. [Al means an accrediting agency; [C) means a for-profit corporation; [1) means en organization composed of institutions or other organizations; [P1 meansa professional association; NI means apublic or educational service organization; [T] means a trade association; [U1 means a trade union. Many of the associations listed do not carry such an indicator because the editor did not have sufficient information to determine the organization's type with a reasonable degree of confidence.
