Southerly‘s copyright policy applies to all Barribugu content.
Copyright will remain with the authors, and the material cannot be further republished without authorial permission.
Southerly has first publication rights only. The copyright of each piece in either the print journal or any online section, including Barribugu, belongs to the author. The copyright of the collection belongs to Southerly.
Southerly requests all authors to register with the Copyright Agency in order to collect any copyright entitlements that their work attracts. Southerly does not have the resources to distribute copyright payments to authors.
Southerly has converted the full archive of Southerly, from 1939 to the present, into scanned pages that can be accessed via the digital publishing house Informit. This means that all Southerly publications have now been archived. This is also part of a much larger project of archiving and making available Australian literary journals, including Meanjin, Griffith Review and Island, among many others.
