The "Permissions" section is designed for individuals and organizations that want to reuse portions of a U-M Press book. The "Subsidiary Rights" section is designed for organizations that want to convert a complete U-M Press book to another format, e.g., a non-English edition, a movie, or an audiobook. If you are not sure which use fits your needs, don't worry. Both um.press.perms@umich.edu and um.press.rights@umich.edu are checked by a small team, which can guide your inquiry to the right place - there may just be a delay.

Permissions

Permissions and Republication Subsidiary Rights for almost all Press titles may be requested through the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) at www.copyright.com. You'll get the fastest service by working through CCC.

• To find the title easily on CCC please make sure to have the ISBN of the title for which you are requesting permissions or rights. Your request will usually be automatically approved, otherwise you will receive a response to your request after it is reviewed.

For any permissions or republication rights that cannot be processed through the Copyright Clearance Center, please contact um.press.perms@umich.edu

Subsidiary Rights

University of Michigan Press is exclusively represented by Liverpool Distribution Services and its agents for subsidiary rights deals. This includes translation into non-English languages and territorial English language rights. Prior to May 16, 2026, Michigan was represented by the University of Chicago Press.

• All new offers and requests to amend, renew, or cancel existing Michigan licenses should be sent directly to Liverpool University Press at Ellen.Appleton@liverpool.ac.uk

Liverpool also represents Michigan for audiobook rights, but movie, TV, dramatic rights are directly handled by the Press. For these, please contact um.press.rights@umich.edu
