Material published in The Times-Journal newspaper and on times-journal.com, including articles, photos, graphics and other content, is copyrighted by The Times-Journal and by other information providers who have licensed their content to The Times-Journal. You may not reproduce, republish or redistribute this material without the written permission of The Times-Journal.

The Times-Journal receives frequent requests for republishing articles and photos. If the request is for noncommercial purposes and meets the other rules established by The Times-Journal, we will grant these requests.

Linking to Online Articles

You may publish an excerpt from a newspaper article, of no more than three paragraphs of your choosing, along with full credit to The Times-Journal and a link to the full-text article on times-journal.com. This practice applies to text only; similar "excerpts" of visual images (i.e. photographs) may not be used. A link to an article without the excerpt is also permitted.
