MANUSCRIPT AND PHOTOGRAPH COPYRIGHT LICENSE AGREEMENT
This form must be filled out on paper and mailed to:
Publications Coordinator, Ocean Drilling Program, 1000 Discovery Drive, College Station TX 77845, USA
The Texas A&M Research Foundation desires to obtain a written copyright license before
incorporating any type of material, which may not be in the public domain, into our
computerized databases or other publication formats; therefore, we ask that you
complete this license agreement.
If your research results, data, or photographic materials are legally in the public domain,
or you consider them to be in the public domain, then a written statement signed by
you to that effect will suffice. If applicable, please include in the statement any relevant
funding agency information, such as grant or contract numbers.
Execute an individual license agreement for each submission you are making (e.g., a
manuscript, which may contain photographs, or a set of photographs is considered one
submission), and send the license agreement(s) to us along with the relevant
manuscript(s) and/or photograph(s). We also request that you either type or neatly print
all information to ensure legibility. You may keep a copy for your records. Another copy
will be returned to you once the form is signed on behalf of the Texas A&M Research
Foundation and the manuscript and/or photograph is accepted for publication.
This Agreement is made and entered into this ____ day of ___________________, 200__,
