About The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy
The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy is a non-profit organization run by the editors. The Encyclopedia receives no funding, and operates through the volunteer work of the editors, authors, and technical advisors. (See the IEP Statement of Purpose and Statement of Scholarly Standards).
All articles are copyrighted by The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy and the authors of the original articles; accordingly, our articles are not open source or in the public domain. The IEP has these reprint stipulations: (1) For educational course packets reproduced by either college-run print shops or private copy services such as Kinko's: all IEP material can be used free of charge, and contacting the IEP is not required. (2) For published books that will receive ISBN numbers, such as textbook anthologies: authors or publishers should contact the IEP general editor by e-mail; the editor's current e-mail address is on the IEP web page. (3) For short quotations from IEP articles of 350 words or less to be used in printed books and articles: such quotation falls under fair use, and does not require contacting the authors or general editors. (4) Copies of IEP articles cannot be posted elsewhere on the Internet; one reason for this policy is that our articles are frequently revised or replaced, and we need to retain control over their content.
Most of the articles in The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy are original contributions by specialized philosophers around the Internet; these are identifiable by the author's name at the foot of the article. Others are are temporary, or "proto articles," and have largely been adapted from older sources. They are identifiable by the inclusion of the initials IEP at the close, and will in time be replaced by original articles (see submission guidelines).
