Do teachers and students have the right to use items from Digital Horizons in school projects?
The Fair Use doctrine provides an exception for classroom use of images, video, and audio but should not be interpreted as blanket permission for teachers or students to use any copyrighted item they find on the web. There are guidelines to help you determine what is and is not Fair Use on the US Copyright Office’s website at http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html When in doubt, it is always best to request permission from the copyright holder. You will find contact information for the copyright holder in Ordering Information field on each Document Information Page.
