To post jobs:

To place an ad, send an electronic copy (preferably in Rich Text Format or as plain Text) to crn@cra.org.  

The format should be:

University/Organization
Department
Position(s) title(s)
Body

We will respond with a price quote and ask when and how you would like your ad to be posted.

CRA disseminates ads in three ways. The cost of placing of your ad is the same regardless of which method you choose.

1. Ad appears in Computing Research News (CRN) and is distributed electronically to CRA's jobs listserv and webpage
   (where it remains for no less than two months).
2. Ad appears in CRN only.
3. Ad distributed electronically only.

Computing Research News is printed five times a year: January, March, May, September and November. The deadline for each issue is the first of day of the month preceding the publication date. So the deadlines for the print issues are:

January issue: December 1
March issue: February 1
May issue: April 1
September issue: August 1
November issue: October 1

Ads can be posted on the website and to the listserv at any time, regardless of which issue of CRN you publish them in. If you want your ad to be posted on the website and to the listserv before the publication date of the next CRN, please let us know when you accept your ad quote and we will try to post it within a day or two. If you do not indicate when you would like your ad posted, it will be on or soon before the publication date of the next CRN.

Rates:

• For Line Ads (text):  $3.00 per word. This rate applies if one or all of the above methods of dissemination are chosen. These rates also apply if one or all of the above methods of dissemination are chosen.
  
  
• For Display Ads:  A camera-ready version of the display ad is required for printing in CRN.  If you would like the display ad to be distributed electronically, please also send it in a format appropriate for electronic distribution (e.g., as a text attachment).

  Ads that are three column inches or less are $72 per column inch, with a 2" minimum charge. Ads will be rounded up to the nearest inch. A column inch is 2.125" wide by 1" deep. For ads larger than three column inches, consult the following table:

CRA Member Discounts:

U.S. academic and professional society member organizations receive a $600 credit toward text or display advertisements. Canadian academic members receive a $300 credit. Lab and center member organizations receive an $900 credit.

If your organization has not paid its CRA membership dues at the time invoices are mailed, you will be billed for the full cost of the ad. After you have paid membership dues, you can submit a request for a refund equal to the amount of ad credit you received for being a member.

Agency Commissions:

A discount of 15% of gross billing for supplied camera-ready ads (display ads) is allowed to recognized advertising agencies, provided the account is paid within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Payment is due upon receipt of the invoice. Commissions are not allowed on text ads.

To view jobs:

Ads are distributed electronically to our website and our listserv and are also printed in our newsletter Computing Research News. However, not all of our advertisers choose to have their ad distributed in all three places. Some may select electronic distribution, whereas others may only want their ad printed in CRN.

To see all of our ads, it is necessary to regularly visit our website, subscribe to our electronic listserv jobs [@] cra.org, and subscribe to Computing Research News.
