Copyright and Licensing Our copyright information for readers of eScholarship journals, monographs, and repository content is located at https://escholarship.org/terms
Copyright and Licensing Policy We do not dictate licenses for eScholarhip journals, which may be managed by scholarly societies, undergraduate research programs, or other academic units. We do provide sample language for a recommended author agreement that most journals adopt, and that agreement has a CC BY license, with language journals can swap in for other licenses. Since adding CC license language to our sample author agreement in 2013, most of our new journals have chosen to use a CC license of some kind. The guidance we provide for best practices is in our help site, for example https://help.escholarship.org/support/solutions/articles/9000128029-which-creative-commons-licenses-does-escholarship-recommend-
Complaint email https://help.escholarship.org/support/solutions/articles/9000081206-removing-content-or-reporting-copyright-concerns
Complaint policy We would expect most complaints to be handled by the policies of the journal boards/managers. If a complaint came to us directly, we would work with the affected journal or unit.

To contact eScholarship staff with a complaint, please visit https://help.escholarship.org/support/tickets/new
Publication charge policy eScholarship doesn’t charge fees for article or book publications, but a few of our journals do. Journals with publication charges state this on their informational pages.
