SCOPE

This license covers the newly authored template sources, Word templates,
example layouts, documentation, and website-download snippet in IMS Author
Template Package v1.0.0. No publisher-owned template assets are included.

KOMA-Script and other installed LaTeX packages, fonts, TeX distributions,
and authoring applications are separate third-party dependencies. Their
source packages and font files are not included. Fonts embedded in example
PDFs retain their own licenses and are outside the MIT license above.
Bibliographic references identify other works; those works are not licensed
or reproduced by this package.

Authors may use and adapt the templates to prepare manuscripts. Doing so
does not transfer copyright in an author's manuscript or its content to
NOOS Research Lab, and does not determine the journal's article license,
publication agreement, or publication fees. Those matters are governed
separately by the journal's published policies and any applicable agreement.
