Frequently Asked Questions

I did not receive my copy of one of the publications SFRA membership provides. What do I do?

Contact the SFRA treasurer. Be sure to include the title of the publication and the date of the missing issue. If you are missing a copy of the SFRA Review, you may prefer to download the issue.

Contact the SFRA treasurer(for contact information, please click here). To download issues from our archive, please visit the SFRA Review page.

I'm a librarian, and I want my institution to join SFRA for the publications. Is there a separate membership site for institutional members?

No; institutional and individual members pay the same fees.

Do I have to have an institutional affiliation to join?

No. SFRA welcomes unaffiliated scholars and fans!

What is the membership-term rationale?

To make it easier for our journal affiliates (and ourselves!), SFRA's membership runs for a calendar year. If you join in July, you can choose to begin your membership from the previous January, and we'll send you all the relevant publications; or you could choose to join the following year, and you'll begin receiving publications in 6 months.

I would love to attend your annual conference, but it's just too expensive. Do you offer any subsidies or scholarships?

Yes. Contact the SFRA treasurer and inquire about the availability of funding. SFRA is particularly committed to ensuring that graduate students and international scholars are not priced out of attendance, and these groups are given priority for subsidies.
