The end of the year is fast approaching, and it is time to renew your MAA membership for 2026, if you haven’t already. In addition to a subscription to Speculum – the premier journal of medieval studies – and online access to the entire run of the journal, your MAA membership provides you with numerous exclusive benefits, including:
Eligibility for:
• grants and fellowships to support your research
• subventions to support your publications
• travel support to share your scholarship
• prizes acknowledging your work
Opportunities to:
• collaborate with others on committees that serve our field
• nominate yourself and others for leadership posts
• stand for election to governance
• participate in our Annual Meeting
Your membership dues also help others in the field, providing mentoring and financial support for graduate students, junior scholars, and medievalists outside the tenure track. As we work towards a more expansive Middle Ages, your dues work to build a more inclusive Medieval Studies and support the highest-quality research in all disciplines. We sincerely hope that you will renew your valued membership in the Academy as we continue this work in 2026. You can easily renew your membership online or by logging in to your account on our website. Thank you for your support. Please consider, if your circumstances allow, adding a donation as you renew your membership. We look forward to supporting you and working with you in 2026 and beyond.
