As an IPSA member, how do I access the online version of IPSR ?

Once you have become an IPSA member you will receive an email from SAGE (the publishers of IPSR) to let you know that your free online access to IPSR has been set up. As we do not send new members list to SAGE every day this process may take up to a month, although it should be quicker in most cases. Once you have been notified that your free access has been set up, click this link https://online.sagepub.com/cgi/activate/basic and follow these three steps to activate it:

- Enter your IPSA membership number (supplied in the email from SAGE – ‘IPS’ plus 2, 3 or 4 digits), choose IPSA from the ‘Societies’ list and click on Submit
- Enter your email address, telephone number and fax number. Choose your username and password.
- Click the ‘Send Form’ button and your account will be activated.
