ProQuest makes discordant melody

OUR APPEAL for members to contact the Freelance Office about the large-scale copyright infringement by IPC Media in putting its magazines on the ProQuest subscription digital archive service has produced considerable useful information.

Any member who has had work published in affected IPC titles and has not yet contacted the Freelance Office should do so as soon as possible, at freelanceoffice@nuj.org.uk
