Membership FAQ's
Why should I become a member? I have access to the AEA journals though another source, why pay for membership?
In addition to having online access to all seven AEA journals, your benefits include:
How do I begin receiving print copies of the American Economic Journals (AEJs)?
Members may receive print copies of the American Economic Journals of their choice by selecting them during signup, renewal, or by changing current membership options. The selected copies will be free of charge until the first membership renewal after December 2011.
What if I don't receive an issue?
Occasionally, issues will get lost in the mail. If this happens to you, check to ensure your mailing address is correct and membership status is current by going to your on-line account. If your account is correct and current, notify our Membership/Subscriber Services Department at (615)322-2595 or aeainfo@vanderbilt.edu. We'll be happy to resolve this for you.
Can I get back issues or single issues of the journals?
Back issues for a limited number of years are available for members who would like to fill in the gaps in their collection or pick up an issue or two they've missed. Back issues are sold for $15.00 each. Download a back issues or single issue order form. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery.
Can I get reprints of articles?
Reprints are generally available from the authors. Authors should be contacted directly or you may purchase a single issue.
Can I get permission to reprint articles?
Requests for permission to reprint articles are processed by the Nashville office. Permission to make digital or hard copies of part or all of an article for personal or classroom use is granted without fee provided that copies are not made or distributed for profit or direct commercial advantage and that copies show this notice on the first page or initial screen of a display along with the full citation, including the name of the author. Copyrights for components of work owned by others than AEA must be honored. Abstracting with credit is permitted. Copying, republishing, posting on servers, redistributing to lists, and the use of any component of a work in other works, requires prior specific permission and/or a fee. The author has the right to republish, post on servers, redistribute to lists and use any component of his or her work in other works. For others to do so requires prior specific permission from the author, who should be contacted first for permission to copy, translate, or republish, and subsequent permission of the AEA. Permission requests to the AEA should already include permission of the author. While the AEA does hold copyright, our policy is that the author's agreement be secured before contacting us. To request permissions, please contact the Permissions Coordinator at aeainfo@vanderbilt.edu.
