2. The Reserve Department will abide by the copyright guidelines of U.S. Public Law PL 94-553 and any other copyright laws and guidelines. Please note: Copyright regulations are often stricter for library reserves than for classroom copying, thus the restrictions on reserve may not apply to classroom copying, which is governed by Fair Use Guidelines.
