Why does the Academy charge a fee for re-use of the content?

• Fees of this nature are part of the operating costs associated with producing a journal or book and need to be taken into account by the publisher. Fees are standard practice for republishing the works of others and we feel that our fees are already reasonable and competitive with the fees charged by similar associations.

• The Academy is a non-profit organization that produces the journals at considerable cost to our members. Unlike other publishers, our members underwrite the cost of the journals with their dues and we must consider this when establishing our practices.
