Dear Professional Colleagues, Greetings, I have a request to seek your wisdom on the following. Kindly help me in this regard. Recently our college has asked me to find out whether or not it is legally permitted to scan chapters / articles from books and journals to make them available in online through Moodle or any other online learning environment to the students. Are there are any repercussions in this act? Do we need to get copyright clearance from competent authority in order to provide those scanned chapters to our students as part of their course pack? As we are aware of the historic judgement from the Honourable High Court of Delhi that photocopying is permissible for fair use. In USA libraries seek copyright clearance from http://www.copyright.com/ Kindly give your suggestions in this regard. Thanking you in advance, Regards ______________________________________ *Yesan Sellan, * *B.Com., MLISc., PGDLAN* *Chief Librarian* South Asia Institute of Advanced Christian Studies (SAIACS) 363 Dodda Gubbi Cross Road, Kothanur P.O., Bangalore 77, India Phone: 91 80 2846 5235/5344/ 5649, Fax: 91 80 28465412, Mobile: 91-9972348251 www.saiacs.org Alternative Email: yesans(a)gmail.com ______________________________________ IMPORTANT : This message is intended only for the addressee.
