About EReserves (ERes)
With EReserves (ERes), students can access their reserve materials from any computer at any time of the day. Reserve materials may include articles, book chapters, or PowerPoints. Course materials can be located by course number, course instructor, or department. Each course page is password protected. Passwords are provided by the instructor. Enrolled students in a course may make one fair-use copy of each document in that course. Under no circumstances are students permitted to make multiple copies.
EReserves (ERes) Copyright Policy
The Libraries' E-Reserve system is intended to comply with the limits imposed by fair use doctrine. The instructors must adhere to the following points in order to stay in compliance:-
- Limit of documents per course - Only 15 documents per course are allowed. These documents must not exceed one chapter from a specific published work nor more that one article from a single journal title within the last five years. After 15 documents have been reached and you want to include additional materials, then you will need to remove documents placed earlier to keep the maximum number at 15.
- Password protection must be established at both the course page level and at the document level.
The instructor is responsible for informing their students what the passwords are and that they may make only one fair-use copy of each document in the course. - Once the term is over, the instructor is responsible for removing the documents from the course and not using them again the next consecutive term.
- The copyright law of the U.S. (Title 17, United States Code) governs the making of photocopies or the other reproductions of a copyright material. Under certain conditions specified in the law, librarians and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproductions. One of the specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be "used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research." If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for the purposes in excess of "fair use" that user may be liable for copyright infringement.
