Institutional Subscriptions: library proxy server database.
For universities with an established proxy server, we offer access through IP address authentication as an online database administered through the electronic resources page of your library's website. Institutional Subscriptions make the IPA Source website available to your entire student body, faculty and staff both on and off campus.

Due to the unique nature of IPA Source, fees are based on the average number of registered voice students at your institution rather than the overall FTE. The number of registered voice students is easily established through a quick call to your voice area coordinator.

All fees are for a one-year subscription.
Tier One: for a single institution with up to 29 registered voice students. USD $200
Tier Two: for a single institution with 30 to 59 registered voice students. USD $350
Tier Three: for a single institution with 60 to 119 registered voice students. USD $450
Tier Four: for a single institution with over 120 registered voice students. USD $550  

For institutions without graduate instruction in voice, we offer the following fee schedule.
Tier One UG: for undergraduate institutions with up to 29 registered voice students. USD $200
Tier Two UG: for undergraduate institutions with 30 to 59 registered voice students. USD $200
Tier Three UG: for undergraduate institutions with 60 to 119 registered voice students. USD $350
Tier Four UG: for undergraduate institutions with over 120 registered voice students. USD $450  

Access is for unlimited downloads and unlimited simultaneous users over the entire IP range.

Plug-ins: The only plug-in necessary for the IPA Source is the PDF reader. The PDF files allow viewing, saving, and printing and are set for content extraction for accessibility allowing readers for the visually impaired. Due to the nature of the content of the material (specifically, the use of the International Phonetic Alphabet font and the multi-language elements of each file), the PDF files are not tagged PDF files nor is an HTML alternative possible. While the site does contain some MP3 sound recordings of foreign language texts (easily accessible by most computers), these files do not constitute part of the contractual content and are open to the public as a free service.

Updates: Requests for new material are accepted and new texts are added daily.

Material: All materials on IPA Source are considered public domain in the United States. Although IPA transcriptions with word-for-word translations can be found in book form, over 50% of the material found on IPA Source is unique to our site.
