Members are strongly encouraged to use the ABA name and logo on their business paper, promotional and advertising material, and on websites. Electronic files with both ABA and ILAB logos can be provided by the office.

On 21^st November 2003 the ABA Logo became a Trademark. It was registered as a Collective Mark ("distinguishing the goods or services of the members of the Association from those of other undertakings") in respect of: Printed matter; antiquarian books, manuscripts, autograph letters, photographs, maps and graphics, music and prints. This registration accompanied the change in status of the ABA on 1^st January 2004 to become a Company Limited by Guarantee, Without a Share Capital (Company No. 4817629). Rule 7a describes the privileges associated with the use of the logo; and the Association could in theory sue any non-member who was using the logo.
