Permissions (to use extracts, digitization etc.)

All requests to use content from ELT titles are administered through our permissions management portal. You will have to create an account in order to be able to submit your requests. Please create your account here: https://requestbox.net/eltrights/Login

To help you understand how to submit your requests, we created a step by step guide (PDF, 244 KB).

Accessible Format Requests

OUP is committed to making our publications available to as many of our readers as possible.

OUP is able to provide an electronic file, or grant permission for the creation of an alternate format for students with disabilities. This is limited to use of our titles by disability departments of educational institutions and representative organisations. These files are to be provided solely for the purposes of students with disabilities and are usually distributed in low-resolution, PDF format.

All accessible format requests are administered through our accessible formats management portal. To enable you to submit your accessible format requests, we will have to create an account with the password for you. You will receive an e-mail notification from support@requestbox.net saying the account has been created. You will then be able to log in and submit your requests here:

To request an account please e-mail us at ELTDisabilityResources@oup.com (ELT Disability Resources).

Our Privacy Policy sets out how Oxford University Press handles your personal information, and your rights to object to your personal information being used for marketing to you or being processed as part of our business activities. We will only use your personal information to process your enquiry.

Photocopying

Copyright Clearance Center (CCC)

If your organization has an Annual Academic Copyright License or an Annual Copyright License (ACL) from the CCC, you may reuse content published by OUP within the limits of the particular licence. If your business or institution has not signed up for an annual licence, you may request individual permissions (such as for coursepacks, e-reserves or marketing uses) on a pay-per-use basis, or request an annual license by contacting the CCC directly.

For full details please visit www.copyright.com or contact the CCC's licensing team at licensing@copyright.com

Copyright Licensing Agency

OUP works with the Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA) in the UK, to grant photocopying and coursepack reuses for a variety of markets and purposes. For further information on the range of available licences and their terms and conditions, please visit www.cla.co.uk or contact them at cla@cla.co.uk
