Wikipedia description:

The American Society for Psychical Research (ASPR) is the oldest psychical research organization in the United States dedicated to parapsychology. Until the headquarters were sold in 2024, it maintained offices and a library in New York City that were open to members and the general public. The group has historically offered open membership, and anyone interested in psychical research was welcome to join. However, since the closing of the New York office, access to its researchers and research materials have become increasingly difficult. Nonetheless, it maintains a website and publishes the quarterly Journal of the American Society for Psychical Research.
