Lorraine,
I think the key is whether they are an institutional membership
(allowable) or an individual's membership (F&A). Here is the
link to A-21:

See Section F.b.(3) and also Section J.33. Do a "find" on
the word membership and you will get right to these.

Dear colleagues,
Are membership dues and fees allowable expenses on federal research
grants? I am confused. My SPO officer says no as they are included in the
overhead by the Federal goverment. Huh? is about as clear a question as I
can form now.
Thanks for your help from a newbie,
Lorraine
