REQUESTING PERMISSION FROM LWW BOOKS

Permission to use most LWW book content can now be obtained via RightsLink, the Copyright Clearance Center’s online permissions service. Please search for the book that contains the material that you wish to use on www.lww.com, then click on the “Request Permissions” link and follow the online instructions to get a quick price, to complete and pay for your order, and download and print your license.
 
 If the “Request Permissions” link brings you back to this page, your request requires review by LWW. In this case, please send your request to permissions@lww.com with the details outlined in our Email Request Instructions
 
If the book from which you want to borrow content is not on our web site, please check our Copyright Reversions List to see if the title from which you want to use material is contained in that list. If the title is included in the Copyright Reversions List, you will need to contact directly the person or organization that currently holds the copyright to obtain permission; you can find the name of the current copyright holder next to the book title in the Copyright Reversions List. If the title is not included in the Copyright Reversions List, please send your request to permissions@lww.com with the details outlined in our Email Request Instructions 
 
BEFORE REQUESTING PERMISSION, PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
·        Figures must be original to the LWW text and not credited to any other source.
·        Completely following the instructions for requesting permission will enable us to maximize our turnaround time. We cannot guarantee that incomplete requests will be processed in a timely manner. It may be necessary to return incomplete requests for additional information. We appreciate your efforts to get all necessary information to us regarding your request.
