What is the goal of making ASHRAE's technical knowledge digitally available to members?

• A. To be quick and convenient to use for members
• B. To restrict access to senior engineers only
• C. To publish annual reports in print only
• D. To sell content as a separate product

Answer: (A)

Providing digital access is about letting members reach ASHRAE's technical knowledge quickly and conveniently, wherever they are. The digital format makes information easily searchable, available on demand, and up-to-date across multiple devices, so members can find and apply guidance fast in their design, operation, or research work. This focus on speed and ease adds real value by saving time and enabling informed decisions in real-world practice. It isn’t about restricting access to a subset of members, keeping materials in print only, or selling content separately, which would create barriers or extra costs. The goal is clearly to be quick and convenient to use for members.
