Dear authors,
How to reuse other paper figures in our review paper!
Few are saying, simply citation is enough but,
few are saying that, we need to get the authors permission with licence number.
What one should exactly do! Please suggest me the solution.
Thank you
When using figures or other material from other papers in your review paper, it is important to ensure that you are following proper academic practices and copyright laws. While some sources suggest that simply citing the original source is enough, it is advisable to seek permission from the author(s) of the original paper.
Obtaining permission usually involves contacting the author(s) or the publisher of the original paper and requesting permission to use their material in your review paper. The permission may come with certain conditions, such as providing a citation to the original source or obtaining a license number.
In some cases, authors may make their work available under an open access license, which permits reuse of their material, subject to certain conditions. In any case, it is always best to check the applicable copyright laws and guidelines before reusing material from other sources.
It is good practice to provide appropriate citations and credit to the source of the material in your review paper. If you are unsure about the process of obtaining permission or citation practices, you may consult with your co-authors or seek guidance from a publishing professional.
