When you perform a copyright analysis, the first thing
that you need to do is determine if the material being
considered is protected by copyright. If it is, then you
have to determine if your usage complies with stated exemptions.
Print and complete the decision tree referenced below.
Copyright
Decision Tree
Indicate your decision path on the form, sign, date and
retain the document with related paperwork (e.g., course
or research materials) in case questions arise concerning
usage and how you reached your decision in the future.
If the material is NOT PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT, you are
done. File your paperwork and go home.
If the material is PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT, please return
to Step 2 of the Analysis
Workflow to see if your planned usage qualifies for
an exemption.
