Membership information

Purpose of the Society
Knowledge Base Publishing -- the integrated use of print, Web, and databases -- requires new conceptual and technical skills as well as new kinds of supporting services.

The Society of Knowledge Base Publishers is a membership organization for people who are interested in learning and applying these new techniques to better manage their company's intellectual assets. Applications include:

  • providing clients with more effective problem resolution;
  • decreasing time to market for new products;
  • shortening the sales cycle;
  • increasing revenues from current clients;
  • generating additional revenues from existing patents, trademarks, databases, and other intellectual property;
  • enhancing relationships with investors and shareholders.

Membership options
Select from one of the membership options below.

Full individual membership ($250/year per person) includes the following:

  • Monthly E-mail news alerts. Brief, concise E-mail messages containing links to sources of interest gleaned from Internet news groups, Web sites, and print resources.
  • Montague Institute Review. A private Web journal with reviews and articles by our staff and other experts. Includes back file from 1992 to the present.
  • Discounts on Montague Institute seminars, publications, and roundtables. Some are traditional, face-to-face events; others are "virtual" sessions using the Web and teleconferencing.
  • Participation in Member Q&A, a confidential reference and referral service.

Read-only individual membership ($150/year per person)
Read-only membership allows individuals in the same department or business unit to have access to the Society Web site via passwords. Read-only members do not receive discounts on Society events or publications, nor can they initiate Member Q&A requests. Read-only memberships must be associated with at least one full membership.

Enterprise membership (call for pricing) — Web access for an entire company (or division of a company) as well as member pricing for 2 people on events and courses. Access is typically controlled by IP address (so users don't need to remember passwords) and is limited to 2 concurrent users at a time.

Vendor membership (call for pricing) Access to the Society Web site for up to three people. Submit up to 6 educational announcements per year for inclusion in our monthly alerts.
