Membership in SAMP is open to any institution or nonprofit organization maintaining a library and whose interests coincide with the project.

Member institutions are entitled to borrow, via Interlibrary Loan or by fax or electronic document delivery, all SAMP-funded material in accordance with CRL's lending policies. These materials are available through the Center for Research Libraries' online catalog, available from the CRL main page, and in OCLC.

Members also receive discounted prices on purchasing microform material filmed by the project and within copyright limitations.

Members also participate in the programmatic direction and governance of the project. As part of this, members propose and vote on materials to acquire or film under the project.

Membership is assessed on an annual basis (beginning in July). Full members are assessed an annual membership fee of $750. An associate category of membership for smaller institutions is available on a limited term basis (three years). See the project prospectus for more details.

Membership request forms are available online.
