Does your organization have a research study or white paper, which should be posted in the CABA Research Library? If the answer is yes...or you know of a paper that CABA should pursue, please contact CABA at: caba@caba.org or 613.990.7407. You will earn $50 CABA Bucks for each research paper, document or white paper that are placed on the CABA Research Library. These CABA Bucks can be used to offset your membership, registration fees, or purchase other CABA goods/services. Join the CABA Information Council to earn additional CABA Bucks and to help build the CABA Research Library!

We are encouraging all CABA members and non-members to consider joining the new IHA Research Council. Please note that future research will involve MDU, SMB, and "large building" research. As you consider your decision, new CABA Board member Jonathan Cowper, of AT&T, has indicated that their organization has generated over $7 ROI for every $1 invested into IHA research!

If you have any questions, please contact Fred Bryson bryson@caba.org, 613.993.7232; or David Dern dern@caba.org, 613.993.6760.
