The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code), governs
the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material.
Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are
authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these
specified conditions is that the photocopy or other 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," that user may be liable for copyright
infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a
copying order, if, in its judgement, fulfillment of the order would involve
violation of copyright law.
