Permissions

All permissions must be cleared by the time the manuscript is ready for delivery. A book cannot go into production if permissions are missing. Please ensure that all permissions correspondence is sent along with your manuscript. It is your responsibility to obtain and pay for any permissions needed. It is the publisher, not the author, who is usually empowered to grant permission on behalf of the copyright-holder. This also applies to re-using your own published work – you still usually require permission from your original publisher. 

Figures/Images/Tables

  • ​All figures are submitted as separate individual files, i.e. not within or as part of a larger file.

  • Any images (i.e. jpg, png and tif files) are minimum 1200x1000 pixels in size.

  • Any figures submitted in Word, PowerPoint or Excel are fully editable (text able to be changed, elements to be moved around etc.)

  • All figures (with the exception of tables) have been removed from the manuscript files.

  • You have obtained permissions for all relevant figures, which are logged in the artwork and third-party materials log.

  • If you include an AI-generated image in your chapter, start with a figure number followed by an image title. Beneath the image, include a note with details about the prompt and the source.
