Non-profit copyright licensing solution provider Copyright Clearance Center, Inc. (CCC), US, has announced that Stanford University's HighWire Press has become CCC's first scholarly journal hosting partner to place prominent links to CCC's licensing services on full-text articles and abstracts. Scientists, researchers, physicians, college faculty and other readers of scholarly journals hosted by HighWire Press can now obtain permissions and licenses to use content from those journals in a variety of ways.
More than 130 scholarly publishers utilise HighWire for online production and hosting of content from more than 1,000 individual journals. Some of these publishers who already use CCC's Rightslink service to manage their online rights and permissions process through HighWire will continue to do so. This new integration means that all of HighWire's publisher partners now have a choice of how they would like to work with CCC.
HighWire joins Elsevier, Docutek, OCLC, Atlas Systems and ProQuest, among others, who have integrated CCC's easy-to-use licensing capabilities into their own services through CCC's Rightsconnect programme.
