Whenever possible, original materials should be placed on Reserve. Photocopies should be placed on Reserve only as a last resort and must comply with applicable Fair Use Guidelines. Photocopies are appropriate for Reserve when the decision to use the work is so close to the time it is to be used that prior permission cannot be secured, or when written permission to use a photocopy has been obtained from the copyright owner.
No materials will be added to the Electronic Reserves system unless they have been lawfully obtained by the instructor, Learning Resources, or the College.
In processing Interlibrary Loan requests, SLCC Library Services will ensure compliance with U.S. Copyright Law and its accompanying guidelines. Copyright Compliance must be determined for each Interlibrary Loan copy request before it is transmitted, and a Copyright Compliance Statement must be included on each copy request. Copyright files shall be maintained as directed in the CONTU Guidelines.
