Mailing Labels
Define your audience and increase your response rates
The American Psychological Association (APA) provides mailing lists of all APA members, students, divisions, and selected journal subscribers with merge/purge options, as well as a variety of other selection possibilities. These choices make it easy to define your audience and increase your direct marketing response rates. APA mailing lists are updated on a daily basis and meet postal CASS certification requirements.
General Policy
APA accepts orders for mailing lists under certain conditions. The association reserves the right to review all information to be mailed to its members or affiliates and to reject orders that do not meet the standards of the association. Each order will be reviewed to determine if the materials to be mailed will in some way benefit the association’s members by advancing their knowledge, scientific or professional, in psychology or related disciplines.
The Association does not sell, or otherwise make available, membership address lists or mailing labels on computer tape or diskettes to any organization or individual. Mailing lists are sold only in computer printed mailing label format. Mailing lists are sold for one time use only by the requestor. They are not to be reproduced in any form or resold to another user.
The lists are available on two types of forms, Pressure Sensitive Gummed labels for manual or mechanical application, or Cheshire labels for mechanical application. The association provides labels only and does not provide mailing services. Selections can be made on zip code, type of membership, gender, one or more division memberships, and one or more publications.
Mailing labels are available from the following categories:
Members: approximately 91,500 names
Division Members: There are currently 54 divisions (see "Division Counts" tab on Mailing List Counts). Divisions can be merged/purged to eliminate duplication. If ordering division list and journal subscriber list, divisions can be merged/purged with journal subscriber members to eliminate duplication.
