[Publib] "Green" issue: Publishers mailing lists

[Louise Alcorn]

They often get your name from professional associations like ALA.   I
found that if I got off their list, the next time I registered for a
conference, I got right back on, so I complained to the association
about not selling my name.  Moderate effect, but worth a try.
