Corporate and Publisher Membership Benefits

Corporate and Publisher Affiliate Membership in the Society is open to corporations and other entities who wish to encourage and support the work of the Society.

Unlike the Society's individual memberships which run on the calendar year, Corporate Members are billed for memberships effective 1 July to 30 June of the following year. 

There are four levels of Corporate Membership, and the benefits vary. Should you wish to join, please review the following levels and fulfillments before completing the application. For further information contact the AAS Membership Department, [email protected].
