Guidelines for Classroom Copying in Not-for Profit Educational Institutions


With Respect to Books and Periodicals

The purpose of the following guidelines is to state the minimum and not the maximum standards of educational fair use under Section 107 of H.R. 2223. The conditions determining the extent of permissible copying for educational purposes may change in the future; that certain types of copying permitted under these guidelines may not be permissible in the future. Conversely in the future other types of copying not permitted under these guidelines may be permissible under revised guidelines.

Moreover, the following statement of guidelines is not intended to limit the types of copying permitted under the standards of fair use under judicial decision and which are stated in Section 107 of the Copyright Revision Bill. There may be instances in which copying does not fall within guidelines stated below and may nonetheless be permitted under the criteria of fair use.

Guidelines

  • Single Copying for Teachers
    • single copy may be made of any of the following by or for a teacher at his or her individual request for his or her scholarly research or use in teaching or preparation to teach a class:
    • A chapter from a book;
    • An article from a periodical or newspaper;
    • A short story, a short essay or short poem, whether or not from a collective work;
    • A chart, graph, diagram, drawing, cartoon or picture from a book, periodical, or newspaper.
  • Multiple Copies for Classroom Use
    • Multiple copies (not to exceed in any event more than one copy per pupil in a course) may be made by or for the teacher giving the course for classroom use or discussion; provided that:
    • The copying meets the tests or brevity and spontaneity as defined below;
    • Meets the cumulative effect test as defined below; and,
    • Each copy includes a notice of copyright.

  • Prohibition as to I and II Above
    Notwithstanding any of the above, the following shall be prohibited:

  • Copying shall not be used to create or to replace or substitute for anthologies, compilations or collective works. Such replacement or substitution may occur whether copies of various works or experts there from are accumulated or reproduced and used separately.
  • There shall be no copying of or from works intended to be "consumable" in the course of study or of teaching. These include workbooks, exercises, standardized tests and test booklets and answer sheets and consumable material.
  • Copying shall not:
    • Substitute for the purchase of books, publishers' reprints or periodicals;
    • Be directed by higher authority;
    • Be repeated with respect to the same item by the same teacher from term to term.
  • No charges shall be made to the student beyond the actual cost of the photocopying.

Definitions

  • Brevity
    • Poetry:
      • A complete poem if less than 250 words and printed on not more than two pages.
      • From a longer poem, an excerpt of not more than 250 words.
    • Prose:
      • Either a complete article, story or essay of less than 2,500 words.
      • An expert from any prose work of not more than 1,000 words or 10% of the work, whichever is less, but in any event a minimum of 500 words.
        (Each of the numerical limits stated above may be expanded to permit the completion of an unfinished line of a poem or an unfinished prose paragraph.)
    • Illustrations:
      One chart, graph, drawing, cartoon, or picture per book or per periodical issue.
    • "Special" Works:
      Certain works in poetry, prose or in "poetic prose" which often combine language with illustrations and which are intended sometimes for children and at other times for a more general audience fall short of 2,500 word in their entirety. Definition of prose above notwithstanding, such "special works" may not be reproduced in their entirety; however, an expert comprising not more than two of the published pages of such special work and containing not more than 10% of the words found in the work may be reproduced.
  • Spontaneity
    • The copying is the instance and inspiration of the individual teacher, and
    • The inspiration and decision to use the work and the moment of its use for maximum teaching effectiveness are so close in time that it would be unreasonable to expect a timely reply to a request for permission.
  • Cumulative Effect
    • A. The copying of the material is for only one course in the school in which the copies are made.
    • B. Not more than one short poem, article, story, essay or two experts may be copied from the same author, not more than three from the same collective work or periodical volume during the class term.
    • C. There shall not be more than nine instances of such multiple copying for one course during one class term.
      (The limitation stated in "B". and "C". above shall not apply to current news periodicals and newspapers and current sections of other periodicals.)
