How to join the QSR Section:

(1) There are two mechanisms to join QSR. One can join INFORMS AND select QSR as the Section to be affiliated, or, one can choose to join QSR without joining INFORMS.

(2) QSR Section fees (per year) are: $16.00 for current INFORMS members, $21 for non-INFORMS members, and $6 for students/retirees.

(3) Visit https://www.informs.org/Membership/Join-INFORMS-and-or-INFORMS-Communities, there are two links: one says “To join INFORMS” and another says “To join INFORMS Communities.”

(4) For a non-INFORMS member who wants to join QSR only (not to join INFORMS), he/she should ONLY click the link of “To join INFORMS Communities” and pay $21 (or $6, depending on the membership category).

(5) For a person who is now an INFORMS member but would like to add QSR to his/her existing INFORMS membership, the procedure is the same as a non-INFORMS member joining QSR (namely, use the “To join INFORMS Communities”) but pay $16 (or $6) membership fee.

(6) For a person who wants to join INFORMS AND QSR, s/he should follow the link “To join INFORMS” and it will have a place for him/her to indicate which subdivision to choose later. New INFORMS regular members receive the selection of one INFORMS Community (QSR) at NO ADDITIONAL COST!
