Membership Rates for 1986/87¶
The British APL Association committee has fixed the subscription rates for next year. In order to maintain the quality of services, the committee has decided on a small increase in the basic rates.
The rates for 1986/87 will be as follows:
| Pounds sterling: | U.K. | Overseas |
|---|---|---|
| Student members | 5 | n.a. |
| Private members | 10 | 18 |
| Corporate members | 85 | 140 |
| Libraries | 55 | 85 |
| Sustaining members | 360 |
The air mail supplement for overseas private members outside Europe stays at £8.
Members are reminded that subscriptions are due for payment at the start of the financial year (1st May). In future the Association has decided that it cannot afford the luxury of mailing out any issues of VECTOR to members whose subscription has not been received. So make sure you renew your membership with the Treasurer as early as possible.
Free membership¶
The Association has traditionally relied on word-of-mouth from existing members to attract new subscribers. In order to continue the recent increase in membership, it has been decided to give a year’s free membership to any existing member who recruits three new members.
In order to qualify for this special offer, you must send the Treasurer your own membership renewal form together with application forms and payment from three individuals who have not been members of the Association. So hurry up and find your recruits before the start of May! This offer applies to U.K. private membership only. Overseas members who can generate three new subscribers will be entitled to a reduction of £10 on their subscription.
APL Publications¶
We regret to announce that APL Publications has ceased to trade. We would like to thank Les Hollingbery for running APL Publications, selling the Association’s books over the last few years. He has now handed the stock to Mine of Information Ltd. who will supply all APL books.
The address for orders by post is:
APL Book Service,
P.O. Box 1000,
St. Albans,
Herts. AL3 6NE, U.K.
(Phone 0727-52801)
Telephone orders are accepted and you can quote you Access or Visa number and expiry date.
The Association hopes that this service will be well supported by all APL users, so that it can become an established part of the European APL community.
