Electronic Copyright Issues

Even though information stored on the Web can be freely accessed, copyright law still applies. Generally, you should obtain permission to distribute any documents or graphics you find on the web unless your use of the material falls under the Fair Use Guidelines. Always assume information, graphics, sound files, anything you can save from the Web is copyrighted unless it is accompanied by a statement saying otherwise.

Copyright law is complicated. To read more about it, visit the United States Copyright Office, http://lcweb.loc.gov/copyright/
