RESEARCH FILES · READING ACCESS · PUBLICATION

A received file.
A recorded permission.

Track what we can read, what we have actually received, and what would require separate permission before public or shared use.

Correspondence and selected public policies reviewed 7 November 2026 · manually maintained.

Reading, storing and publishing are separate decisions.

A public viewer is a reading route. A personal-study file is not automatically licensed for a staff-wide database. A purchased eBook is not automatically a shareable PDF. Private correspondence and quotes remain in the internal acquisition review; incoming emails are summarized here.

The minimum permission record

For every acquired file, record the exact item and pages, provider, receipt date, original filename and checksum in private storage. Keep the use conditions with it: personal study, named staff access, public embedding, redistribution, translation/derivatives, attribution, term and any fee. An unassessed permission stays unassessed. Private paths, transfer links and full emails are excluded from public exports.

A price is not an order

A tariff, institutional licence quote and final item-specific estimate are different records. Before a purchase, define the research question, inspect existing lawful reading routes and confirm the format and permitted users. No purchase or non-cancellable imaging request has been placed through this review.
