Commercial requests  

For any form of commercial reuse, including requests to use content at sponsored symposia/lectures, sponsored medical education activity, republication of material by non-STM-signatory publishers and any other requests not covered elsewhere on this page, please go to the Copyright Clearance Center, select the journal and follow the steps to obtain the relevant permission. 

Sharing and public posting of articles  

Portland Press endorses and supports the ‘voluntary principles for article sharing’ compiled by the STM Association.

We encourage the public posting of open access articles and article metadata in scholarly collaboration networks and elsewhere online. 

 Sharing of subscription/licenced articles within research collaboration groups is also allowed and encouraged as long as such groups are scholars or researchers invited to participate in specific research collaborations. Such groups must: 

• Be of the size that is typical for research groups of that discipline; 
• Only share articles within and for the purposes of the group.

These groups are also permitted to:

• Allow article sharing between subscribers and non-subscribers within the group; 
• Include commercial researchers, subject to publisher policy or appropriate licencing; 
• Include members of the wider public participating for the purposes of the group.
