7license are adhered to, and that this license or an incorporation of it by
8reference (with any options elected by the author(s) and/or publisher) is
9displayed in the reproduction.
10
11Proper form for an incorporation by reference is as follows:
12
13 Copyright © 1999-2013 by each contributor. This material may be distributed
14 only subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Open Publication
15 License, v1.0 or later (the latest version is presently available at

19author(s) and/or publisher of the document (see section VI).
20
21Commercial redistribution of Open Publication-licensed material is permitted.
22
23Any publication in standard (paper) book form shall require the citation of the
24original publisher and author. The publisher and author's names shall appear on
25all outer surfaces of the book. On all outer surfaces of the book the original
26publisher's name shall be as large as the bridgehead of the work and cited as

36otherwise explicitly stated in the document.
37
38Mere aggregation of Open Publication works or a portion of an Open Publication

40to apply to those other works. The aggregate work shall contain a notice
41specifying the inclusion of the Open Publication material and appropriate
42copyright notice.
43
44SEVERABILITY. If any part of this license is found to be unenforceable in any

71
72V. GOOD-PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS
73
74In addition to the requirements of this license, it is requested from and
75strongly recommended of redistributors that:
76
77 If you are distributing Open Publication works on hardcopy or CD-ROM, you
78 provide email notification to the authors of your intent to redistribute at
79 least thirty days before your manuscript or media freeze, to give the
80 authors time to provide updated documents. This notification should describe
81 modifications, if any, made to the document.
82
83 All substantive modifications (including deletions) be either clearly marked
84 up in the document or else described in an attachment to the document.
85
86 Finally, while it is not mandatory under this license, it is considered good
87 form to offer a free copy of any hardcopy and CD-ROM expression of an Open
88 Publication-licensed work to its author(s).
89
90VI. LICENSE OPTIONS
91
92The author(s) and/or publisher of an Open Publication-licensed document may
93elect certain options by appending language to the reference to or copy of the
94license. These options are considered part of the license instance and must be
95included with the license (or its incorporation by reference) in derived works.
96
97A. To prohibit distribution of substantively modified versions without the
98explicit permission of the author(s). "Substantive modification" is defined as a
99change to the semantic content of the document, and excludes mere changes in
100format or typographical corrections.
101

103versions of this document is prohibited without the explicit permission of the
104copyright holder.' to the license reference or copy.
