There are two categories of membership in ASME:

Regular Members are senior level editors, photography editors and art directors of qualified print and online magazines. Qualified print magazines are defined as magazines that are edited, published and distributed in the U.S. at least four times a year. Editors of company publications and newsletters are not eligible. Qualified online magazines are defined as Internet sites whose primary function is to inform or entertain rather than to sell products or promote a business (i.e., online stores and advertiser sites are not eligible). If the site is part of a large corporate site or portal, the editorial component must be clearly delineated. An online editor is defined as an editor, designer or producer who makes key creative decisions about the content, tone and point of view of a Web site. Regular membership dues are $395 per year. You can download an application for membership by clicking here.

ASME NEXT Members are junior level editorial staff members with up to five years of editorial experience. NEXT members are non-voting members of ASME. ASME NEXT dues are $185 per year. You can download an application for membership by clicking here.
