Can I use a Family Archive CD to answer a search request on an electronic bulletin board?
No. Posting the results of a broad search onto an electronic bulletin board is always a violation of copyright, because the information is projected to a large number of people. On the other hand, if you and another specific person want to use e-mail to communicate with each other, it’s fine to share small quantities of specific data from your Family Archive CD. As long as your messages aren’t being broadcast to an entire bulletin board community, e-mail can be a real time-saver for checking and finding family history facts quickly.
