It has to be enabled, but along the bottom of the issue's display, click on Share, and if it is enabled, there's a link that says Download, and it'll give you the PDF file.

- Do you frequent your organization's inter/national website? Is there another site that serves a more relevant purpose (ie. your chapter's website, or an unofficial website/blog)?
- Do you actively follow your organization's inter/national Facebook page? What about Twitter or Instagram?
- Are there other social media outlets that are relevant/popular (Pinterest, LinkedIn, GroupMe, or organization mobile app)?
- Is your organization's official publication/organ still in print or electronic? Which do you prefer? Is it as popular amongst members in sharing organizational highlights versus social media?
- How is your social media integrated into your conferences? Any cool innovations outside of an official hashtag or handle?

1) I do frequent our national website, which is
http://www.sai-national.org/ - I wish there were more pictures and that the officer portal was actually a member portal accessible to all sisters and also allowing for contact between all sisters from all chapters, alumnae/collegiate, and possibly integrating the listserv sign-up in there as well.
2) Facebook and
Twitter, yes. To my knowledge SAI doesn't have an official Instagram page—but it's a wonderful idea, lol. I know of chapters that have their own Instagrams in addition to their Facebook and
Twitter profiles and I love getting to see pics from their post-ritual celebrations and also fundraisers, musicales, etc, plus it integrates well with Facebook and
Twitter both (particularly
Twitter) and eliminates some of the need for double/triple posting depending on how you have it set up.
3) The only one of those mentioned that I know we have is LinkedIn, and I am also a member of that group, though I haven't looked at it recently. Man, I wish we had a Pinterest! There are tons of sisters on there, I know. I follow as many of their SAI boards as I can find (though it's been a while since I looked, having only just gotten my good internet back
)
4) Both our newsletter (
Tempo!) and our quarterly (
Pan Pipes) are available in print and in digital. I have the digital links somewhere but I receive the print copies in the mail, too. I'll have to update my mailing address when I renew my dues. As for which I prefer…I love holding the print version, but it's also nice to be able to have past issues and ones since I've been a member on my iPad and not have the extra bulk.
5) At our last conference, in 2012, we had a special hashtag. Other than that, there wasn't really any social media integration. That said, I'd imagine 2015 may be a different story (at least, I hope so!) in that regard. I've seen mention of the apps and things that other organizations have set up and I could think of some excellent ways that could be used for our St. Louis convention!
