This statement outlines in plain English the terms under which we purchase the use of stock photography. If you have a specific question or concern, or have disagreements with any of these terms, please feel free to discuss them with one of our Photo Editors, or with the Photography Director. These terms apply to all stock photography purchases, on all projects, unless specifically waived in writing by the Photography Director. All editions of a particular title, plus related promotions . Quantities and distribution can vary from title to title, and can change over the life of a book.
Some books reprint several times.
Some books are only printed once. A small percentage of books get translated into another language, and usually in a very small quantity. These are of course covered in our all editions phrase. This is always done in the context of the book. If the newspaper or magazine is willing to scan directly from the book itself, without the need for us to supply the image, we require that they credit the individual photographer whose work is shown.
