COPYRIGHT AND LIBRARY PHOTOCOPYING: The PRACTICAL PROBLEMS

Abstract

I set out comprehensively the provisions of the British law of copyright as they affect libraries in an earlier paper (Journal of Documentation, vol. 14, no. 2, pp. 45–50), which presents what I believe to be still an accurate and reasonably complete picture of the situation, but which is too comprehensive to be easily used as a quick guide to the solution of current working problems. The present paper, based on an address to an Aslib Winter Meeting and on the very useful discussion which followed it, concentrates on the kinds of case that trouble the librarian most frequently, and approaches them practically rather than theoretically. For further detail, and for discussion of topics not treated here, the reader may refer to the earlier paper.
