Id like to copy the history course in CHC Lesson Plans to use with my homeschool co-op. Would this break the copyright law?
Yes, this would violate the copyright law, which is in place to protect the copyright holder’s work, investments, and income. To copy pages from the lesson plans would undermine the CHC apostolate by causing financial loss to the artists and authors, who depend on the royalty from each sale for their income. CHC is a team effort: We expend a great deal of personal and financial sacrifice in the apostolate to write and publish materials which are affordable, easy to use, flexible, solidly Catholic, and full of ready-to-go ideas for living the Faith. We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation by purchasing the group copyright on any materials you wish to share with a group, thus enabling CHC to continue publishing!Large, nationally recognized book publishing corporations enjoy the luxury of wide advertising and name recognition. Their products, which might range from cookbooks, to Wiccan philosophy, to dog obedience books, are available at bookstores in shopping malls across
