Subscription and Electronic Collection Terms
2010 Subscription and Electronic Collection
Terms
Commission
Single Journal Title Orders
A 2.5% commission will be allowed to agencies on institutional subscriptions.
To calculate the discount, subtract 2.5% from the U.S. institutional rate,
then add any applicable postage and GST.
e-Duke Journals Scholarly Collections (Standard
and
Expanded) and Euclid Prime
Agents and consortia will receive a 5% discount on renewal
orders. For new orders, agents and consortia are eligible for
a one-time 10% discount. (New orders are defined as customers who have
not previously purchased the e-Duke Journals Scholarly Collection or Euclid
Prime, not customers who are new to a particular agent or consortium.)
e-Duke Books Scholarly Collection
Agents, consortia, and book wholesalers will receive a 15%
commission on new and renewal orders that are prepaid. For
orders received without prepayment, a 10% discount will be
received.
Cancellation Policy
No refund will be made once the first issue of a journal subscription has
been served. Print back-issue orders cannot
be canceled or returned once issues have been shipped.
Change of Address
Please notify
us of address changes, supplying both the old address and the new one.
Duke University Press cannot forward issues returned by the post office without
written notice of the new address from the customer or the vendor.
Journal Print Claims/Shipping Time/Airmail
Claims for missing issues are honored for one year following
the date of shipment. Only issues that have been lost or
damaged in transit will be replaced free of charge. Domestic
subscribers should allow six weeks for delivery of issues.
Subscribers outside the U.S. should allow ninety days for
delivery of issues. Airmail and express-delivery rates are
available upon request.
Format Changes to Subscriptions
Downgrades
A downgraded subscription is a print-plus-electronic
subscription that is changed to a print-only or electronic-only
subscription. Downgraded orders will not be accepted
once the first issue of a journal subscription has been served.
Upgrades
An upgraded subscription is a print-only or electronic-only
subscription that is changed to a print-plus-electronic
subscription. Upgrade requests will be accepted at any time.
Please allow six weeks for processing from the time that
payment is received by Duke University Press. Upgraded
accounts will not receive online access until payment has
been processed.
Electronic Access
Most Duke University Press journals are accessed electronically via HighWire
Press. The Duke Mathematical
Journal, DMJ 100, the Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic,
and the Euclid Prime collection are accessed via Project Euclid.
The e-Duke Books Scholarly Collection is accessed via ebrary®.

Resource Center.

Payment Terms
All orders are to be prepaid, including postage charges.
Incorrect payments will be returned.
All payments must be remitted in U.S. dollars and
by draft payable on a U.S. bank. Orders may be charged to MasterCard, VISA,

Renewal Invoices and Notices
Renewal orders are processed more promptly if they include
our customer account numbers. Renewal notices are not sent
to institutions subscribing through agencies.
Subscriptions at Individual Rates
It is our policy to accept subscriptions at individual rates only when they
are paid by personal check or credit card. We assume that all domestic subscriptions
paid through institutional funds—including those paid through subscription

so long as full end-user address information is provided for verification
