A good place to start is probably

    IEEE Service Center
    445 Hoes Lane, P.O. Box 1331
    Piscataway, NJ 08855-1331
    (201)981-0060

I think there is also a service center in S. California
but I don't have the address handy.

I am afraid some netters are confused about the IEEE and IEEE-Computer
Society. The Computer Society is one of several professional societies that
form the IEEE (other societies include Power, Communications, Robotics, etc.)

One can belong to the IEEE-Computer Society only or to both IEEE and
IEEE-Computer Society (CS-only members don't get some IEEE benefits and
don't receive Spectrum).

To join the IEEE, contact the IEEE Service Center in Piscataway (I have not
seen their application forms in many years  but I assume one could use it to
join any number of the societies with one application.)

To join the Computer Society contact the West Coast office:

	Computer Society of the IEEE
	10662 Los Vaqueros Circle
	Los Alamitos, CA 90720-2578
	(714) 821 8380

The CS application form also allows members to join the IEEE (but not other
IEEE societies.) Applicants don't need to contact both organizations.

The Computer Society also has offices in Brussels and Tokyo but anybody can
enroll through the address above.
