Subscriptions and access information
Subscriptions are available as either Print and Online (institutional) or Online only. Single issues are Print only. All Intellect journals are hosted by our online hosting partner, IngentaConnect.
Access can be set up via IP address and/or username and password (for remote access) using Athens or Shibboleth. You may need to consult your network administrator for this information. Please ensure IP address ranges for all sites are included to ensure access. Online access is multi-site and multi-user, provided all sites of the subscribing institution are administered under one central administration and are within one country. There is no limit to the number of users, provided all users are affiliated to the subscribing institution. Please contact us, providing details of FTEs, if access is required for sites in more than one country. More information on subscriptions is available on our Subscribe to Our Journals page.
How to set up and activate subscriptions
Subscribers with any online component to their subscriptions will need to activate this via our online hosting partner, IngentaConnect.
If your institution has not already registered with IngentaConnect, please click here to register. Instructions on institutional registration can be downloaded here.
If your institution is already registered on IngentaConnect, simply log in to your account here with your administrator username and password. Click on ‘Administration’ (listed under the sign in box).
Under ‘Subscriptions’, select the ‘Set up subscriptions’ option and click on the 'Add' tab. Then choose your subscribed title from the alphabetical list or select your collection from the ‘Connect Collections’ link. Note: if you have subscribed to a Full Journals or Subject Collection, you only need to select one title in the collection to activate the entire collection.
Enter your Turpin customer number (beginning CU-), which should be listed on your payment receipt/invoice in the box next to your chosen title. If you do not have your customer number, please contact Turpin, who will be able to send this to you.
Once you have entered your customer number, click on the 'Add' button. You should receive a message saying your subscription has been accepted. You will be able to access content once the first issue of your subscribed volume has been published. For any difficulties registering or activating subscriptions, please contact IngentaConnect.

Licensing

Usage Statistics
Free Issues
Free online issues of all journals are available to download. Please click on the relevant journal's page on Ingenta for links to the free issue.
What options are there for institutional subscriptions?
We have Print and Online (institutional), Online only (institutional) or Print (personal) subscriptions available. Single issues are available in Print only. For further information, go to our subscriptions page.
Do you have subject area collections available?
Yes, we have set journal packages in our main subject areas, as well as a Full Journals Collection, all of which offer considerable discounts compared to buying journals separately. Alternatively, you can design your own Tailored Collection if you are planning to subscribe to seven or more journals. Collections provide complete back-issue access for as long as the current subscription year is maintained. Go to our Collections page.
How do I order a subscription?
Links to ordering can be found on each individual journal’s webpage. You can order directly via our distributor Turpin or your usual subscription agent. If you have a discount code, please ensure your agent has this when they place the order for you.
Is access to subscribed volumes perpetual? What happens to our access if we don’t renew our subscription?
Access to any subscribed volumes is perpetual. You will always retain access to any volumes you have paid for, even if you don’t renew your subscription for following volumes. This also applies if you have purchased an archive collection. If you have been granted free back-volume access as part of a collection, you will retain back-volume access for as long as the current subscription year is maintained. If you decide not to renew the collection, you will retain access to any previously subscribed volumes and back volumes (including the volumes for which you held the collection) but will lose access to unsubscribed back volumes. This also applies if you retain subscriptions to some of the journals in the collection, but don’t renew the collection as a whole.
Example: our institution subscribes to four journals between 2015 and 2017. We then add three new journals and subscribe to these as a Tailored Collection of seven journals in 2018. With the collection, we receive full archive access to all journals in the collection. In 2019, we cancel the collection but continue subscribing to the original four journals.
In this case your institution would retain permanent access to all seven journals for the 2018 volume, as well as access to the 2015–2018 volumes for the four journals. You would lose all other access outside of these volumes. Your ongoing 2019 subscriptions would continue as normal.
How can we get access to past volumes of a journal?
There are several ways you can get access:
1. If you subscribe to a Full Journals, Subject or Tailored Collection of seven or more journals, access to back volumes is included, free of charge, for as long as the current subscription year is maintained. Go to our Collections page for more information.
1. If you subscribe to a Full Journals, Subject or Tailored Collection of seven or more journals, access to back volumes is included, free of charge, for as long as the current subscription year is maintained. Go to our Collections page for more information.
2. You can purchase perpetual access to back volumes for a one-off fee. Please contact Turpin for prices. If you are purchasing the full archive, and there are seven or more back volumes of the journal, you should also be eligible for an archive discount of 20% or more. Please contact us on journalsubscriptions@intellectbooks.com for more information. Note: Online only subscriptions are available for any volume, but only the most recent three volumes are available as a Print and Online subscription.
3. For print volumes and print issues older than the most recent three volumes, please contact Periodicals Service Company, 351 Fairview Avenue - Ste 300, Hudson, NY 12534, USA. T: 518 822 9300 E: psc@periodicals.com W: www.periodicals.com.

Yes. Intellect works in partnership with Research4Life to allow institutions in developing countries free online access to our Full Journals Collection. See our Subscribe to Our Journals page for more information.
Do your journals comply with the REF2021 OA Policy?
Yes. Our standard Green Open Access policy is REF compliant, as authors are able to deposit the accepted version of their work to a repository and set an embargo date of twelve months after the publication date. This restricts access until after the embargo period ends and is allowed under REF policy. Authors may also comply by opting for Gold Open Access with Intellect. To check the compatibility of any Intellect journal, consult the SHERPA/REF tool. Go to our Open Access page.
We will be adding resources for librarians in due course. Please watch this space!
