[CALIBK12] Copyright question

[Sarah Passonneau]

Hi Folks,
I have some people who like to copy pages from a textbook.  I told them
no.  But they are claiming a few pages is ok for educational purposes.
They are educators creating training materials and want to reference
materials.  We don't allow check-out of materials so they would have to
stay at our center or make copies.

  What percentage is okay-I know for in class purposes there are very
specific rules.
What is the rule for this sort of thing. 

 Here is what the interested party told me:
"I see the issue, and we actually had a conversation  on this very thing
yesterday. I'll come over and chat with you soon - there are allowed
uses for single copies (versus making copies for classrooms)."
 
Thanks for your help.
