Hello wise writers,
I have more newbie questions for you all. I have done a lot of research for my book, which I have fortunately been able to download from the computer (articles, research, studies, reports, etc.) I have noticed a few sources state to contact them for reprinting permission. Does this mean if I want to print and pass out the article itself, or does it mean if I just want to quote some information from it (and cite it, too)? Do you need permission from the author/publication when you quote information from them (again, cited, of course) or does merely citing it allow it to be used?
Finally, do most of you do your research on the internet or do you physically go to a library for information? Many journals require you to buy articles, and I've seen them as much as $12.00 a piece - and who knows if it is even what you need until it is purchased!
All replies are appreciated. Thank you!
