Free membership for students of Nancy-Université (including the University of Metz).
Free six-months' membership (renewable) for the unemployed.
Free membership for paid-up members of the ABAN. ABAN membership is 10€ per year for adults and 4€ per year for those under 18 years of age. This special rate does not allow use of the other Nancy-Université libraries.
Students registered in a French university outside of Lorraine: 29€ a year.
All other types of membership: 40€ a year.
It is possible for secondary-school teachers of English to ask their educational establishment to sign a convention with the Université de Nancy 2 which provides membership for all of the pupils in a class and access to all the other university libraries. If only a few pupils are interested, we recommend that they join the ABAN at 4€ a year in order to obtain a free membership.

Friends of the Library (ABAN: Association des Amis de la Bibliothèque Américaine de Nancy)
We still need willing hands to get the backlog of books registered, covered, identified and on the shelves. Those members who wish to occasionally contribute a few hours of volunteer work may sign up on the list provided on the bulletin board of the Association located to the left just after the librarian's desk. Ruth Etienne is the coordinator of the volunteer program. We also encourage our English-speaking members to participate in the conversation groups whenever they are in the Library.
The General Assembly of the Association was held on February 3rd at the Library. The minutes of the meeting have been distributed to members. If you did not receive the e-mail with attachment or a copy by mail, please get in touch with our President, Mary Petit.
