Permissions management is a key part of our publishing responsibility at LHS. We handle permissions with two goals in mind: to support the responsible sharing of research and to protect the integrity of intellectual property.
Authors retain extensive rights to reuse their own published work for legitimate academic and educational purposes. They may share their articles with students, use them in teaching, include them in dissertations, or republish them in non-commercial edited collections, as long as proper attribution to the journal is given. For open-access articles published under Creative Commons licenses, reuse follows the specific terms of the chosen license, providing both transparency and flexibility.
For third parties who wish to reuse materials such as figures, tables, or extended excerpts, LHS maintains a clear and efficient permissions process. Requests can be sent via the official email, where they are promptly reviewed to ensure compliance with copyright and licensing requirements. Educational institutions and researchers are encouraged to use content within fair use or fair dealing guidelines, and LHS aims to accommodate legitimate academic requests without creating unnecessary obstacles.
Our permissions policy is designed not to limit scholarly exchange but to uphold proper attribution and respect for intellectual contributions. Through careful permissions management, LHS promotes open and ethical knowledge sharing while maintaining the highest academic standards.
