SIPX Delivers Real Value

Benefit Value

Instructors A faster and easier way to create digital course reading lists that is less costly to students (by leveraging institutional holdings) and the institution (by reducing liability from unauthorized use of materials)

No more wasted time and resource navigating the copyright permissions maze. Gain access to analytics highlighting which readings were purchased and downloaded

Students Central access to course materials, easy download to any device and lower overall materials cost

By tapping into their student status, students experience significantly lower course material costs. In early pilots with printed course packs cases, the reduction was between 25% and 78%

University and libraries

A content distribution process that ensures use of legal content at a lower cost than before. Gain access to analytics about which materials are used for which courses, and at what price and frequency of download and printing

Librarians make better choices when spending subscription dollars

About Manual Clearance

• In the event the system is unable to provide the exact source or suitable alternative you are looking for, or generates a result that requires special licensing terms, you may choose to submit a request for manual clearance

• A member of the SIPX copyright clearance team will manage the search for copyright permission at that point.

– That person may contact you directly for additional information if necessary

• Please note, however, that the manual clearance process can take up to eight (8) weeks to complete as approval is dependent upon rightsholder response. We advise you to review alternative source options before opting for manual clearance assistance
