Publishers vary greatly, as the chart in the next section indicates. Royalty demands are often dependent on the length of the reading and the number of copies requested. When responses are received, we must record their date and the royalty rate on the request sheets. When all responses have been received, we hope that time will permit a review of the results by the faculty member. Readings that are problematic are held until the problems are resolved and then issued as the packet's Part 2 or, if necessary, Part 3.
Most publishers require that a permission statement be printed on the first page of each article.
We prepare labels with this information and stick them on each article. All readings are checked for missing pages and for readability. The Duplicating staff copies the work and packages it according to the professor's directions. Course packs that are charged to a department budget and handed out to students in class are usually delivered to the department. The rest are picked up and paid for by the students in the Duplicating Center.
