The Advanced Photon Source is a 7GeV electron storage ring 3rd generation x-ray source in Chicago Illinois, which serves 3500 annual users who produce over 1000 peer-reviewed papers every year in areas from medicine to physics. The facility is planning for future upgrades ranging from beamline improvements to a possible new energy-recovery LINAC source. Following a review of the science demands for an improved x-ray source, I will discuss especially the beamline instrumentation and accelerator improvements which we are considering and the route to achieving these.
