ISA Section Memberships
When you use the MyISA system to add or renew an ISA membership you will have an opportunity to join sections. Sections provide programming at the Annual Convention (business meetings and receptions, panels and workshops) and many also provide listservs, newsletters, conferences, award competitions and other added benefits for section members. Each section elects their own officers and they are solely responsible for administering section affairs. Please see the links to the left for more information on each section. Section memberships are typically between $3 and $5 for a one-year membership, $6-$10 for a two-year membership, and $9-$15 for a three-year membership.
* Institutional members are typically academic departments, libraries, think tanks and embassies with an interest in archiving ISA journals for their members. Institutional membership does not confer individual memberships on each member of an institution. If you are a member of an institution that has an institutional membership with ISA and you personally would like to enjoy member benefits we invite you become an individual member of ISA.
