Reuse Policies for Authors in University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

All author agreements for student-edited Michigan Law Journals/Reviews state:

“This license shall be exclusive from the date of acceptance of the Article by the Journal through 30 days after publication in the Journal, and shall be nonexclusive for the remaining term of the copyright.

During the editorial and cite checking process after the Article is accepted by the Journal, you may post the version of the Article you submitted to the Journal and/or the version of the Article that has gone through the first round of substantive edits on your web page, in your institution’s open access online repository, and/or in SSRN. The version of the Article so posted must be cited as forthcoming in the Journal.

After the article has been published in the Journal, you may also, during the period of the Journal’s exclusive license, post the published version of the Article on your web page, in your institution’s open access online repository, and/or in SSRN, provided that the Article is fully cited as published in the Journal.

In all other cases, you must obtain the Journal’s express written permission to publish the Article anywhere else during the period of the Journal’s exclusive license.”

Reuse Policy for Non-Authors

The author retains copyright and should ultimately grant permission for reuse; University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform is unable to grant reuse permissions on an author’s behalf. A reproduction of a work should include a citation to the article’s original publication.

For example, if permissions are obtained from the author for reproduction rights you may include:

This work (or portions of this work) were originally published as:

Ryan M. Scoville, Legislative Diplomacy, 112 Mich. L. Rev. 331 (2013).

Educational Reuse

If you would like to request to use a piece in a course pack or other educational resource for a course, you may do so without requesting permission, as long as the following requirements are met:

"...the issue of the Review in which the Article appears may be reproduced and distributed, in whole or in part, by nonprofit institutions for educational purposes, including distribution to students, provided that the copies are distributed at or below cost and that those copies identify the Author, the Review, the volume, the number of the first page, and the year of the Article’s publication..."
