All material published by Guilford Press is protected under international copyright and intellectual property laws. Guilford Press books, journals, and video programs may not be reproduced, in whole or in part, in any medium, without written permission. This includes, but is not limited to, the use of text, figures, charts, and audio or video recordings.
Request Permission
Republication, Coursepacks, and Sharing Content Electronically
Permissions for Guilford Press material, including requests to republish, share content electronically, and for print or electronic course materials, are processed through the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC), and can be cleared online in real time. Search for Guilford Press titles and submit permission requests at https://www.copyright.com.
If you are not able to clear permission through the CCC, you may also submit a Republication Request Form directly to Guilford, but note that this method will be considerably slower than going through the CCC (it may take up to five weeks to finalize your permission). The CCC is the quickest and most efficient way of securing permission for Guilford Press content.
Clinical Trials and Research Studies
Permission to use scales, norms, checklists, and worksheets in clinical trials and research studies should be requested directly from Guilford Press. Please complete the Clinical Trial and Research Study Request Form.
Permission requests sent directly to Guilford Press currently have a processing time of up to five weeks. We ask you to be patient during this process and to avoid sending repeated requests for information once you have received confirmation of receipt of your request form.
Other Requests
For copyright and licensing inquiries not covered by the CCC or the above forms, please email permissions@guilford.com and provide the following details:
- The book title, author(s), and ISBN
- The exact page numbers of the material you’d like to use
- A clear, detailed description of your intended use
- Your email address, phone number, and mailing address.

Licensing Foreign Rights
If you are a publisher interested in licensing a Guilford Press title for foreign translation, please email rights@guilford.com.
It is our policy to contract directly with a foreign language publisher when licensing a translated edition.
Electronic Texts for Students with Disabilities
Guilford participates in the Access Text Network, the service that connects publishers with colleges and universities to make alternative formats of textbooks readily available for students with disabilities.
Qualified students can order most Guilford titles directly from Bookshare, the online library for people with print disabilities.
We are pleased to offer electronic copies (ePub or ePDF) of textbooks to Accessibility or Disability Support Service offices, for use by students or instructors with disabilities, at no additional cost. Requests can be submitted via email: info@guilford.com.
Accessibility is important to us. Our workflow for accessible ePub e-books recently has been accredited as Global Certified Accessible by Benetech, and we have begun to offer certified accessible ePubs, meeting WCAG 2.0 AA standards.
