Permission Guidelines

As the author, it is your responsibility to obtain all necessary permissions for copyrighted material. Permissions must be obtained from the original copyright holder, usually the publisher, even if you are the author of the original material. Your manuscript is not complete until all permissions are received by us. Failure to obtain and submit all permissions will result in delay of publication of your work.

Please find a sample Copyright Permission Request letter (in PDF and MS Word). Use it to request permission or as a guideline when generating your own request letters. Some publishers provide online permission request forms, some grant permissions by email, others may grant written permissions only.

When you have received the permission grants, please mail or fax all the originals to: Academy Publisher, P.O.Box 40, FIN-90571, OULU, FINLAND, Fax: +358-207-81-8199. Please remember to keep a copy for your records. Should you have any questions, please contact us by email at: editorial@academypublisher.com.
