NOTICE: Warning Concerning Copyright Restrictions
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 copyright law.
Photocopying Guidelines:
The copyright law of the United States (17 USC 106 et seq) governs the
making of photocopies and other reproductions of copyrighted material.
Individuals making copies are liable for any infringements.
Reserve Guidelines:
Photocopied material will be placed on E-Reserve only within the
limits suggested by the Copyright Law of 1976 and related educational
guidelines. Books placed on Reserve do not require copyright permission;
examination copies and items owned by other libraries cannot be placed
on Reserve.
As library staff interpret the Fair Use provision of the Copyright
Law (17 USC 106 et seq), the library will accept for E-Reserve a single
copy of an article from a journal or a single chapter of a book without
permission of the copyright holder.
If an instructor wishes to use the same photocopy for more than one
semester, permission from the publisher may be necessary. Such
permission must be obtained by the instructor.
Library staff will not place items on Reserve if those items are
considered in violation of copyright; exceptions to Copyright Law will
not be made.
Additional information regarding copyright is available at: http://www.copyright.gov/.

policy.
