Every week, AlterNet staff hand-picks stories from freelancers and the independent press and continually adds them to our database. And only AlterNet Syndication members may reprint our stories. If you join AlterNet's Syndication Service, your publication will receive unlimited access to our growing database of over 10,000 articles and images. As an AlterNet member, you will also receive the AlterNet Index, an e-mail newsletter that lists each week's current stories and promotions. AlterNet membership dues are assessed quarterly, and are based on circulation size.
Members also pay a small fee for each story they reprint.
Story reprint fees are calculated by each story's word count, and are also based on your publication's circulation size. Half of each reprint fee goes directly to the writer or the originating publication. Fees vary, depending on the type of artwork, arrangements with the artist and publication size.
