ARAZPA now offers Subscribing Institution Membership. This provides organisations with the opportunity for holding passive membership. This is the ideal membership for libraries and universities, and other interest groups which wish to receive copies of ARAZPA publications.
- ARAZPA Publications

Subscribing members receive a range of publications each year:
- The ARAZPA Newsletter is produced four times per year. It includes, news from member institutions, international bodies (e.g. CBSG), and the association, as well as postition advertisements and reports of significant conservation, research and education events.
- The ASMP Regional Census & Plan is produced annually, and records the current holdings of ARAZPA member institutions, along with institutional plans for the future. This publication also includes a range of additional information relevant to regional collection planning.
- Taxon Advisory Group Action Plans are produced regularly by ARAZPA Advisory groups, and contain recommendations for planning and managing all species held by ARAZPA member institutions, and report on progress with intensive programs for priority species.
- Species Action Plans are produced by ARAZPA Species Coordinators, and coordinate the detailed management of our priority species.
- Other publications produced throughout the year.
Subscribing members also receive a 20% discount on additional copies of all ARAZPA publications and access to the Member Services section of the ARAZPA web site.
Subscribing members help fund a number of ARAZPA conservation initiatives.
Through the species management program, 33 ASMP Conservation Programs are run where captive populations are managed directly to provide support for threatened populations in the wild.
In addition to the ASMP, ARAZPA has recently established the ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund, dedicated to providing funds solely to in situ conservation projects. The ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund aims to provide a structure for conservation fundraising through public and corporate donations.
To date, fundraising campaigns and events for the Wildlife Conservation Fund have included a televised conservation appeal and a regional conservation lecturer tour, promoting the conservation work of ARAZPA institutions and raising funds for endorsed conservation programs. So far, the ARAZPA Wildlife Conservation Fund has provided funds to support project assisting conservation of Sumatran Tigers, Great Apes, Coxen's Fig Parrot, Tenkile, and Owston's Palm Civet.
ARAZPA also helps fund the IUCN Conservation Breeding Specialist Group, a group working with government bodies and NGOs in countries around the world to help set conservation priorities for threatened species in the wild.
