COPYRIGHT LAW Title 17, U.S. Code) governs the making of photocopies or other
reproductions of copyright material. Under certain conditions specified in the
law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish photocopies or other
reproductions of copyrighted work. 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," the user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the
right to refuse a copying order if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order
would involve violation of the copyright law. The granting of permission to
publish by the Society does not absolve users of materials from securing
permission from copyright owners and payment of such additional fees as the
owners may require if the Society does not own copyright or if the material is
not in the pubic domain. Applicants assume all responsibility for questions of
copyright and invasion of privacy that may arise in copying and in the use made
of the photographic copy.
