Copyright Information
Due to copyright law, the following restrictions apply:
- Instructors using any item more than one semester are responsible for obtaining copyright permission.
- Textbooks and/or selections from textbooks will not be accepted as personal copies or for electronic reserve.
- No more than 10% of any book may be placed on electronic reserve.
The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be "used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research." If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of "fair use", that user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if, in its judgement, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of the copyright law.
