About the journal
Historical Studies in the Physical and Biological Sciences (HSPS) is undergoing a title change to better reflect the broad scope of scholarship contained within its pages. The first issue with the new title, Historical Studies in the Natural Sciences, will be Volume 38 No. 1, scheduled to be released in February 2008. HSNS will continue to be published by UC Press for the Office for History of Science and Technology, University of California, Berkeley. The journal will also be moving to a quarterly publication schedule with volume 38. The new publication months for the journal will be February, May, August, and November.
Subscribers to Volume 37 of HSPS will be receiving a special supplemental issue of the journal in September 2007. This issue will be printed and shipped to all subscribers at no cost to them. Librarians should note that the issue will not be numbered and will not be considered a part of either Volume 37 or 38. The issue will be made available free of charge on UC Press' online hosting platform Caliber.
Enter the fascinating realm of Historical Studies in the Natural Sciences (HSNS), a journal that chronicles the history of science as it has developed since the 18th century.
HSNS is published quarterly and explores a vast number of scientific fields, social histories, and their relevant institutions, including physics, chemistry, astronomy, meteorology, geology, biophysics, radiation biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, and genetics. Widely regarded as a leading journal in the historiography of science and technology, HSNS brings you nearly 200 pages of original, often-cited articles, essay reviews, and annotated bibliographies.
Be sure to catch the journal’s special issues, in which themes range from the development of physics internationally in the 20th century to the history of national laboratories.

Understanding copyright transfer
When your article is accepted for publication into one of the journals we publish, the Press asks you to sign an author agreement, which transfers your copyright to the Regents of the University of California or one of its publishing partners*.
The reason we ask you to transfer the copyright is simple:
As the administrator of your article's copyright, the Press ensures through managing the licensing and permissions process, that your scholarship will receive the widest possible distribution among educational audiences, and consequently, the greatest success of engaging in active scholarly discourse.
By comparison, if you were to retain your copyright, your article would be distributed only to those individuals and institutions subscribing to the journal. You would also be responsible for fielding and handling all subsequent inquiries for reproduction, which could potentially include numerous classroom photocopying requests by universities throughout the world, republication requests from publishers, abstracting and indexing requests, and subsidiary rights/content licensing agreement requests from content aggregators and archives.
The transfer of copyright to the Press is largely designed to allow you to focus on your research rather than on the clerical details associated with copyright ownership. The downside to this, as we understand, is not having complete control over the dissemination of your article. However, please be assured that the Press takes administration of your copyright and management of the associated rights very seriously. As a non-profit, scholarly publisher, University of California Press places the mission of the scholar and the Academy above all; we never will reproduce your article for any other purpose than to educate.
For a detailed map indicating where your article is distributed once published, please see our Journal Subsidiary Rights and Permissions Overview (PDF).

Using images, photos, music and other outside content to enhance your article
Before your article goes to press, you must clear the necessary reproduction rights for any images, photos, figures, music, or content credited to a third party that you wish to use (including content found on the Internet), which fall outside of the fair use provisions described in U.S. copyright law. Because University of California Press distributes and licenses your article widely in both print and electronic formats to libraries, journal subscribers, secondary publishers, and other educational organizations, we request that our authors seek nonexclusive, worldwide rights in all formats and media, for one-time use from the rights holder of the image, photo, musical score, etc. that you wish to reprint.

Download the Press's Journal Copyright Guidelines for Authors (PDF). Once you have secured formal permission, please provide your journal's editor with all correspondence and supporting documentation for his/her records.
If you have questions regarding how to obtain permission for such third-party content, please find a brief list of reference websites and resources that will help you not only to license content easily and efficiently, but also to navigate the complex world of fair use, public domain, and copyright law:
