AGREEMENT PENDING APPROVAL!!
Authors publishing in the Journal agree to the
following copyright transfer agreement.
Transfer of Copyright
So that the Author(s) and Plattsburgh State
University journal of Undergraduate Research,
Scientia discipulorum, may
be protected from the consequences of unauthorized use, author(s) must
grant and assign rights to publish an accepted manuscript or data paper
and any associated supplemental material (work) in all languages and in
any other form, in the United States and in any other countries, and to
assign others the right to do so. The Author(s) shall retain the right to
quote from, reprint, translate and reproduce the work, in part or in full,
in any book or article he/she may later write, or in any public
presentation. The Author may not post the work in a publicly accessible
form on another web site. If
the Author(s) reproduces a portion of the work in a book, article or other
media, the legend or caption of any table or figure that represents data
from the work, in original or modified form, shall cite the work as the
source of those data.
The Journal policy will be to release copyright for Authors who
seek to use published
Scientia
discipulorum material in a national or international level
professional journal. In
addition, the Author(s) shall have the right to photocopy the work for
his/her own use or public distribution.
If the Author(s) reprints, translates or photocopies the work, the
original copyright notice, as it appears in the Journal, must be included.
The Author retains all proprietary rights other than copyright, such as
patent rights. By submitting
a manuscript, the authors agree that the copyright (or equivalent rights)
for their article will be transferred to Scientia
discipulorum if and
when the article is accepted for publication.
After a manuscript has been accepted for publication, the authors
must complete and submit the copyright release form. The official form
will be prepared by the Editor and sent to the corresponding author, who
will be expected to obtain the signatures of any other authors.
In submitting a copyright release, the author(s)
represents that he/she is the sole proprietor of the work; that it does
not infringe any existing copyright; that it has not heretofore been
published; and that to the best of his/her knowledge it contains no matter
libelous or other material which invades the right of privacy or which
infringes on any proprietary right. The Author(s) will hold harmless
Plattsburgh State University
against any claim, demand, or recovery finally sustained in any
proceedings brought against Plattsburgh State University
by reason of any violation of any proprietary right or copyright,
or any unlawful matter contained in the work.
If previously copyrighted material is included in the work, the
author(s) must confirm that permission for its reuse has been received
from the original copyright holder.
Ejournal
Policy on previously published material:
The publisher requires that all submissions be
original contributions and that full disclosure redundant publication must
be made in the cover letter at the time of submission.
Under certain circumstances, use of the same information in two or
more publications is appropriate when new information allows
reinterpretation of previously published data.
It is the Editor-in-Chief's responsibility to decide whether
specific duplications are appropriate and the authors responsibility to
obtain permission for use of any previously published material. A
necessary test for prior publication is whether the author can legally
transfer copyright to the Plattsburgh State University
ejournal of Undergraduate Research.
