    Publishing articles and books

    When publishing articles or books, consider copyright before completing a publishing contract.

    When to get permission

    You must obtain written permission when you include or adapt images, figures, diagrams, graphs or other materials created by others in your articles, conference papers, book chapters or conference presentations. This requirement also applies to web content.

    You do not need permission if:

    • the copyright has expired
    • you have sourced material with a Creative Commons licence or open source software licence that permits your intended use
    • you have sourced material from a website whose terms and conditions permit your intended use
    • you are only linking to—or embedding a link to—material such as a YouTube video
    • you have used an insignificant portion of the material—mostly applies only to text
    • you use a fair dealing for criticism or review, or parody or satire.
