Copyright and Fair Use Guidelines
As educators, we want to be sure we are modeling responsible use of copyrighted material (print and digital) at all times to our students. Not only does this underscore the importance of the practice, it also protects our school district from potential fines and legal recourse from a copyright holder. If your scenario is not covered in any of the resources below, please ask for clarification.
"The law is what applies only when nothing else does."
​
"Licenses and permissions trump the law."
