Copyright and CourseWork

Review University Policy: http://library.stanford.edu/libraries_collections/copyright_reminders/index.html

http://fairuse.stanford.edu/ CourseWork helps faculty and staff take

advantage of content that is legally available through Stanford or through the Internet at large. Stanford University Libraries have secured licenses to tens of thousands of online works (articles, books, encyclopedias).

Sample License Terms Here is the applicable language from the McGrawHill license:

C.      Authorized Uses. Licensee and Authorized Users shall each be permitted to (i) display, download, or print out one (1) copy only, for the Authorized User’s own research or study only, limited amounts of  materials from the Licensed Materials; (ii)  materials from the Licensed Materials in connection with classroom teaching, lectures, presentations, rounds, and other instructional activities, such uses to include displaying, linking to, downloading, printing and making and distributing multiple copies of  limited  materials in both print and electronic format; provided that, Licensee and its Authorized Users will only display or distribute such  limited  Licensed Material to students or other persons attending in person presentations, lectures, rounds or other similar instructional activities presented or given by Licensee or its Authorized Users. 

Linking vs Scanning

Scanning, creating, posting pdf’s is NOT the preferred method.

Faculty members are encouraged to provide links to the content-owner’s website

If copyright clearance were necessary to place something into a coursepack, then copyright clearance is necessary to place it into a class website.
