Copyright Conundrums

Copyright raises many questions: What can I use freely? When do I need to get permission? What is covered by copyright? How do I protect my intellectual property?

Relaxed checkout rules for some textbooks

Starting now, if we have an online version of a textbook, we’ll let you check out the paper copy just as you would any other book.
Previously, these books could only be used inside the library.
The only core textbooks remaining on 4 hour reserve behind the Circulation Desk are the ones that aren’t available online, or that faculty have specifically requested remain there.
