Publication
Numbers of the Reporter are published at the discretion of the Registrary. Each issue of the Reporter bears the line "Published By Authority", referring to the fact that in its official part, it contains only University Notices issued by authority, that is to say, by those University bodies which have a right of reporting to the University (these include the Council, the Board of Scrutiny, and any Board or Syndicate constituted by Statute or Ordinance or by Grace of Regent House).
In its unofficial part, the Reporter contains Reports of Discussions; notices of non placet of Graces; notices not authorized for inclusion in the official part; notices by the Colleges; notices of learned societies; and advertisements.
The printed edition of the Reporter is printed in Great Britain by the University Press, Cambridge and published by Cambridge University Press. It is registered at the Post Office as a newspaper. Most of the Reporter is now also available on the Internet. However, because of the requirements of the Data Protection Act, some of the content of the online Reporter is limited to the cam.ac.uk domain, and some copies are made available only in printed form.
Copies of the Reporter are made available gratis to Heads and Praelectors of the Colleges. Members of the University who live in Cambridge or any member of the Regent House is entitled to receive copies of the Reporter for a term and the following vacation at a reduced price. The excess of the cost of the Reporter over the Receipts is charged to the Chest.
In 2005, controversy was caused within the University when an edition of the Reporter was recalled in order to be republished with corrections.

Famous quotes containing the word publication:
“I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Of all human events, perhaps, the publication of a first volume of verses is the most insignificant; but though a matter of no moment to the world, it is still of some concern to the author.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
