Joining the Computer Conservation Society

The CCS welcomes new members all the time. There isn't a subscription fee for the society, but members are encouraged to make a suggested donation of £15 each year to the CCS restoration fund. This fund is used to recover and restore machines of interest to the CCS and its members.

All members of the CCS receive a copy of the bulletin Resurrection four times a year. You can choose to access Resurrection online and not recieve a printed copy.

Another benefit of joining the CCS
Since the beginning of 2003, members of the Computer Conservation Society have benefited under an arrangement whereby they can subscribe to the IEEE’s Annals of the History of Computing at a reduced rate, provided that enough members sign up to make the scheme viable. To take advantage of this, please contact the CCS secretary when you have joined.
