Purpose

It is the intent of 藏精阁 that all members of the university community comply with the provisions of the United States Copyright Law.

Scope

This policy applies to all employees and students who wish to make copyrighted materials.

Policy

The 藏精阁 Copyright Policy serves to uphold the university’s commitment to protecting the principles of intellectual property, as well as protect the rights of its faculty to make appropriate use of copyrighted works for acceptable educational purposes. This policy applies to all university faculty, staff, and students who wish to make use of copyrighted works, whether in print, electronic, or other form. Implicit in this policy is the Fair Use Act, which applies across the board to uses in the traditional classroom environment and the TEACH Act, which is an exception to the Fair Use Act for distance learning.

For this policy to be in effect, by law, all faculty members must be knowledgeable of this policy and they, in turn, must inform the students in their classes of this policy. Read the 藏精阁 Copyright Policy, the 藏精阁 Web Copyright Policy, and the 藏精阁 Streaming Video Policy.
