Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy International Association (SEPIA)

Libraries can support the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP) by joining the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy International Association (SEPIA), a membership organization under the sponsorship of Indiana University Libraries. The purpose of SEPIA is to build an endowment that will provide ongoing funding for publication of the SEP as a scholarly, open access source of information on philosophy. The Philosophy Documentation Center (PDC) serves as the fiscal agent for SEPIA. Full members of SEPIA receive special benefits, including:

  • (1) protection of membership dues (dues will be returned if the SEP ever terminates)
  • (2) branding on SEP web pages
  • (3) a listing on the SEP Library Support page
  • (4) single-click download access to the SEP Archives
  • (5) SEP Archive storage rights
  • (6) the right to serve the SEP Archives if the SEP terminates.
  • If your library would like to join SEPIA, please complete and submit the Statement of Commitment

    The following one-time rates for Full Membership in SEPIA are based upon the number of philosophy departments in each country and general economic conditions. (Note that payments may be spread out over 3 years.)
