The main article has a link to a download of the SASB. Here is the letter from Metropolitan PHILIP:
"1996
The First Edition of the St. Andrew Service Book was approved for use by the
Western Rite Congregations of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian
Archdiocese of North America in 1989. This, the Second Edition, improved in
format and expanded in content, will be welcomed by the clergy and laity of
our archdiocese who worship in a tradition as ancient as the Eastern.
We take this opportunity to commend and sincerely thank Archpriest
Michael Keiser, the original compiler of the service book, as well as the Board
of the Orthodox Christian Press, Archimandrite Michael Trigg, Fr. John
Downing, and especially Mr. Karl Steinhoff, for their many hours of dedicated
labor in preparing the revised edition.
We pray that the attentive use of '''these authorized liturgies''' and other rites
and ceremonies by the Western rite clergy and laity of our beloved
Archdiocese will be the cause of a spiritual and liturgical renewal within our
church in North America.

I fail to see any ambiguity in this letter to warrant the claim that the SASB is not authorized in the same way that the OM is. --[[User:Fr Lev|Fr Lev]] 22:57, August 9, 2008 (UTC)--[[User:Fr Lev|Fr Lev]] 22:57, August 9, 2008 (UTC)
