The Society's new website opened to members in September 2026. Every record on the membership roll came across to it, and each member now has an account of their own.
What the account shows
Whether a membership is current, the date the member was admitted, and the date the membership is paid to.
Details a member can correct
Name and title, institution, country and research interests can be changed by the member at any time, without writing to the Society.
The certificate
The membership certificate can be read and downloaded at any hour. It carries the membership number and the date of admission, and anyone it is shown to can confirm that it is genuine at the address printed on it. Certificates from Special Interest Group workshops appear in the same place.
What the Society sends
Members now choose for themselves what they receive: the quarterly digest of the Society's news, notices from the groups they have joined, and the reminder before a renewal.
Setting a password
The old site held no accounts, so no password came across, and setting one is the only thing a member needs to do. Go to the sign-in page, give the address the Society writes to you at, and a link arrives by return.
Also new
The Special Interest Groups opened with the site and are the largest addition to membership. Membership has moved to an annual subscription, with a free year for every member admitted before the site opened. And everything the Society has published, from the newsletters of 2009 to the most recent proceedings, is now on the site and searchable in one place.
