Paying with credit cards using PayPal

1. New members, please print and fill out the AJL membership form.  Renewing members, please use the renewal form that was mailed to you (if you have not received a renewal form, contact Laurie Haas, vice-president for membership).
2. One-year memberships (personal or organizational) are $50 and $65 for members in other countries. After you read the rest of these instructions (not yet!), click on the link below to open a PayPal page that has been customized for the Association of Jewish Libraries.
3. On the PayPal page, if you already have a PayPal account, sign in. If you do not already have a PayPal account, create one by following the PayPal instructions. Instructions differ depending upon whether you are in the United States or in another country. People outside the U.S. may need to return to this instruction page (by using your browser's "Back" button) after creating a PayPal account before continuing.
4. Enter the information required by PayPal. In addition, renewing members, please enter your AJL membership number (which is found on the renewal form you received in the mail) following "Special Instructions" on the PayPal page. Then click on the "Submit to Secure Server" button. The dues will automatically be converted by your credit card company into your local currency.
5. When your transaction is complete, you will receive an e-mail confirmation from PayPal, including your subscription number. Write the subscription  number on your printed renewal or membership form. It is important that you mail us your membership or renewal form with the subscription number on it so that we can confirm that you paid by PayPal and won't look for a check in the envelope. [AJL will also receive a confirmation of your payment from PayPal via e-mail.]
6. Mail the completed membership or renewal form to Laurie Haas at the address on the form. Write your PayPal subscription  number on the form. For questions about membership, contact Yossi Galron.
