Licence
Institutions with a print and online subscription or an online-only subscription to an Oxford Journal are entitled to:

• IP registered access across a single site 
• Access to full-text in HTML (where available) and PDF - current contents, plus available online back issues 
• COUNTER compliant usage statistics 
• Remote access allowed via secure proxy 
• Inter-library loan (For academic and not-for-profit institutions see Licence Clause 2.4 for full details) 
• Archival access to paid-for content

In most cases, Oxford Journals define a site as being within one metropolitan boundary i.e. within a city. So if all your institution's buildings are within one city, you need to agree to our institutional site licence agreement.
