This
section addresses the appropriate uses of material you find on the
Internet. Because you are able to view, download, or print text and
graphics does not mean that the material is unprotected. Nor does
it mean that you are free to disseminate that work to others either
electronically or in hard copy. You
may:
- download
information from the Web for your personal use if it falls within
the Fair
Use Doctrine. Downloading information is considered to be
the same as making a copy.
- generally
download or print information from a commercial database if it
is for your personal use.
- place
your original text, graphics, audio, or video on your web
page.
- provide
links on your web page to other sites.
- use frames
only if you make clear when someone leaves your web page. Otherwise,
you may be presenting other's work as your own.
You should not:
- download
information from the Internet or Web and pass electronic or hard
copies to others without permission unless the copyright has expired.
- use without
permission any images, motion media, or music created by others
digitally or in hardcopy unless the copyright has expired.
- use logos
or trademarks on a web page without permission. Instead, use words
and point to the appropriate URL.
- copy an
entire list to your web page - it probably is a copyright violation
because such lists may be copyrightable under a compilation copyright.
