Had some short stories published in magazines. Can I publish in a book collection?


It's a copyright question. About 10 of my short stories were published in 3 different magazines for small payment. Now I want to publish a collection. Can I use these? If not, how much do I have to change them before they can be published elsewhere?
Thanks everyone for answers.

What kind of contract did you sigh with the mags? You'll need to start there.
