• If the material will be published by a publisher other than HK, provide the title of the work to be released, its author(s) or editor(s), the publisher's name, the estimated release date, the number of pages, and the binding (if known). If the material is for nonclassroom use, indicate how many copies of it you wish to make. For course packets, contact the Academic Permissions Service of the Copyright Clearance Center. APS may be reached by calling 508-750-8400, faxing 508-750-4470, or by writing 222 Rosewood Drive, Danvers, MA 01923.
  
  
• Full title of the original HK book or journal; full title of the chapter or section, if applicable; last name and initials of the author(s) and/or editor(s).
  
  
• Volume and issue number of the journal or the edition number of the book.

Additional Information

• If you submit a request to include an entire HK article or chapter in a publication by a different publisher, and we grant permission for the use, we may require that you also contact the author of the material for additional permission.
  
  
• Under no circumstances will we permit more than 10 percent of a book or 40 percent of a journal to be reproduced.
  
  
• You may be required to pay a permission fee.
