The University's CLA Licence enables our staff and students to make multiple copies from print materials within the CLA's repertoire for educational purposes, subject to permitted extent limits.
Not all material is covered under the Licence. Some categories of material are excluded, including printed music, maps, and privately owned documents. There are also excluded publications for which copying rights must be negotiated directly with the rights owner or their authorised agent.
To check whether a work is included or excluded for copying, use the search tool for the most up to date results. CLA also maintains reference lists of works excluded by authors, visual artists or publishers, and a list of international territories, on their website, which may be updated less frequently.
Other licences or copyright exceptions may apply to some excluded works, so if the material you wish to use isn't covered, please ask Library Services for advice.
The CLA Licence allows 明星八卦 staff to make photocopies of journal articles and book chapters for each student in a particular class (plus one for the teacher). The readings can also be put together to form a course pack for no extra charge. Under the Licence staff may copy:
- up to 5% or one complete chapter (whichever is the greater) from a book
- up to 5% or one whole article (whichever is the greater) from a single issue of a journal
- up to 5% or one paper (whichever is the greater) from a set of conference proceedings
- up to 5% of an anthology of short stories or poems or one short story or one poem of not more than 10 pages (whichever is the greater)
- up to 5% or one single case (whichever is the greater) from a published report of judicial proceedings
