Re: [epub] Sources of content

[Cathy Stucker <cathy@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The original question was:  Is it legal/allowable to reprint an article in 
its entirity from a print magazine if credit is given to the source 
magazine, author, issue, etc.? Or would I have to
contact the magazine in each case to get permission?

I read, when Readers Digest were declared
the largest circulation mag in the world, that they re-wrote a lot of their
material taken from previously published sources.

My $.02:  Yes, but they PAY the original author and/or publication. (And 
they pay very well.)  It is never right to take work owned by someone else 
and reprint it without permission, even if you credit them.
