Copyright Fair Usage Clause Notice


Material on this site have been (a) created by the site author, or (b) assembled from a variety of Internet web sites and been placed here for ease and rapidity of local access, or, (c) for small amounts of text, derived from printed material.

A good faith effort has been made to comply with US copyright law. This does not mean that none of the material is copyright, but that the "fair use" clause of US Copyright Law has been adhered to. The "fair use" clause, as explicated at the U.S. Copyright Office web site http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#107 is given below.

The United States Copyright Law Title 17 of the United States Code Circular 92 Chapter 1 §107. states: "the fair use of a copyrighted work ... for purposes such as ... teaching ... scholarship or research is not an infringement of copyright... for nonprofit educational purposes..."

In particular, any copyright material used here is (a) not used for commercial gain and used exclusively for educational purposes; and (b) used in limited amounts in comparison to the published source.

If there are any objections that material placed here does not conform to the "fair use" provisions outlined, please contact the webmaster and material will be removed immediately pending resolution of the issue.
