Requests for Permission and Foreign Rights

Discover how to request permission to reproduce material from a Research Press product.

Permission

All books, CDs, and DVDs published by Research Press are protected by copyright.

If you wish to reproduce material from a Research Press book, please first review the copyright page to confirm whether or not we have already granted permission to allow original purchasers to reproduce specific pages for noncommercial educational or clinical use, not to extend to reproduction by other parties.

Reproduction of Research Press material to fulfill requirements for an undergraduate, master’s, or doctoral degree is permitted with proper citation to the original source of the material as long as the work will not be republished or distributed for sale.

Any other use of copyrighted material, commercial or noncommercial, must be approved by Research Press, in writing and in advance. To protect the intellectual property rights of our authors, a permissions fee may be required. We reserve the right to enforce our copyright if our materials are reproduced in any format or stored without our prior permission.

Some of the materials in our catalog and on our website are distributed items, to which we do not hold copyright. Permission to use material from these products should be addressed to the publisher/copyright holder. (Item numbers for distributed books all begin with the number “8”; Research Press materials are identified by other item numbers.)
