The American
Philatelic Society tries to help you, our valued members, get more
enjoyment out of your philatelic activities. One way we try to do
this is to utilize the talent and experience we have available among
our members to help you with your questions about collecting skills,
the material you collect, and ways in which you can find resources
to help you in your collecting pursuits.
If you have
questions in any of these areas, now or in the future, please use
the on-line form below to make your need known. We will then match
you with a volunteer APS Mentor. We will try to match you with someone
in the same geographic area, but that is often not possible. We
also need mentors to help other members. To volunteer, please complete
our mentor form.
As
with everything else in life, there are a few rules:
- The APS
is facilitating contact between an APS member who needs help
and a more experienced APS member who has offered to serve as
a mentor. The APS does not accept responsibility for the mentor's
advice.
- Both the
requestor and the APS Mentor are expected to conduct themselves
within the APS Code
of Ethics.
- The Mentor
Program is not intended as an opportunity for commercial philatelic
transactions.
- Statistical
records only will be kept on the Program. Contacts between the
requestor and the APS Mentor will not be supervised.
- APS Mentors
are not expected to do difficult identification or expertizing.
