RE-PRINTING GUIDELINES

We allow and welcome reprints of our published monographs. We are pleased to provide information that you want to share, and encourage you to do so.

To re-print one of the OMI's monographs in your own publication, we require only two things of you:

  • You must properly cite the monograph in your publication, and give all credit to the author, peer reviewers, and to the OMI as is due. Guides for citation can be found at the bottom of each monograph.

  • You must notify us that you are reprinting our content by emailing us at robynslp95@aol.com.

Thank you for your interest in reprinting our monographs.

Pam, my mentor and friend, left me a very important job to oversee. I want to assure all OMI subscribers that I have been working diligently over the past year months to carry on Pam's work and contributions to our field. While I will never be able to replace Pam, I am certainly going to try to make her proud! - Robyn

 Steve Sacks, Board Member, has written a beautiful tribute to our beloved Pam Marshalla who founded the OMI
