A Note on Copyright
Most of the texts from which the samples were taken are under copyright.

In the few instances where the copyright holder withheld permission on those terms, alternative extracts were sampled. Relevant details of copyright are included in the following list. Note, however, that our letter to copyright holders gave them the option of not replying, in the knowledge that this would be taken as an indication of their agreement to the use of an extract in the corpus. Where the copyright holder has indicated his consent in this way, we have not added any details about permission in the list of references.
