International Planetarium Society

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Planetarium Society (IPS) is the largest organization of professional planetarians in the world. It includes members from almost every continent and over twenty affiliate organizations. The IPS publishes a quarterly journal, The Planetarian, and holds a convention in even numbered years. Conference Proceedings are published on CD. While most affiliates are based upon a single nation, in the United States the country is divided into eight regional affiliates, and several areas with small numbers of planetariums have united several countries into a single affiliate, as in the Mediterranean and Scandinavian regions.
