Copyright

What are Copyrights?

Copyright is a type of intellectual property which protects certain sorts of original creative work, including academic articles. Copyright allows the creator of a work to decide whether, and under what conditions, their work may be used, published and distributed by others. As such, it governs how others can use, publish and distribute articles.

Understanding your copyright options as an author is becoming ever more important, especially with the growth of open access publishing.
