We kindly ask all to complete membership application form on their activities. Together with the eligibility criteria, the information provided by the applicant association in this questionnaire will help the IPA Membership Committee and General Assembly to form a view as to whether your Association fulfils IPA's criteria for a given membership category. The IPA General Assembly decides, at its discretion, whether or not to accept any given application.

The application process itself, which leads up to the request for membership addressed to the General Assembly, is administered by the IPA Secretariat and will depend on the particular circumstances of each applicant. IPA generally asks applicants to make themselves available for a personal meeting at an international publishing event, e.g. during a major international book fair, or the next IPA Copyright Congress, to discuss the aspects raised in the questionnaire.

Deadline for applications: 6 February 2023.

Should you have any question regarding IPA or the application process, please contact the IPA Secretariat at: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
