Last week, Wendy Rotchstein from San Francisco/San Mateo emailed me this question...
Good afternoon Robert,
Should we be using a University form when asking for permission to republish an article from a website? Up to now we have just had email permission for re-print into our 4-H newsletter, but I am wondering if the University requires anything more formal? I was not sure who to ask in your department, if this is not your area could you possibly re-direct me to the right department or person to ask?
Thank you!
Wendy

It's a good question. If the request is small, I think that email permission is adequate, but only if you are confident that the person you are getting the permission from is authorized to give it. That's a judgment call on your part, but it saves having to use a form and adding more adminstrative work. If the request is large, complex, or for something clearly commercial or you aren't sure if your request will be welcomed, contact us and we'll help you figure out the right approach.
Thanks Wendy
Bob Sams
