: ADPNet has two categories of membership, each with specific fees and responsibilities. The two categories are:
:
: 1. Host: a category for organizations with the necessary infrastructure to host one or more [[preservation node]]s;
: 2. Participant: a category for organizations with digital content that needs to be preserved, but without the necessary infrastructure or the desire to host a [[preservation node]].
:
: The fees, rights, and responsibilities for each of these membership categories can be found in Attachment 1: ADPNet Membership Agreement and Attachment 3: ADPNet Membership Model and Storage Fee Schedule. The fee structure is designed to ensure that each Member’s costs are commensurate with its use of the Network.

: Membership categories and fees are subject to change. ADPNet Members will be given a six-month advance notice of any upcoming changes in the categories or fees. Membership category is determined at time of joining the network and evaluated annually.
