When determining whether or not a work is part of Access Copyright, use the Repertoire Look-Up Tool. Mohawk College's Access Premium License allows for:
Copying up to 20% of an Access Copyright repertoire work that is:
- An entire article, short story, play, essay, poem, or reproduction of an artistic work from a volume containing other published works;
- An entire article or page from a newspaper or periodical;
- An entire entry from an encyclopedia or similar reference work;
- An entire reproduction of an artistic work from a publication;
- One chapter from a book provided the chapter is not more than 20% of that book.
Concerning reproducing an Access Copyright repertoire work, you can:
- Make photocopies;
- Fax, scan, and print the selection;
- Store the selection (e.g. on your hard drive, USB stick, or on a secure network);
- Send the selection by email, upload or post copies within a secure network;
- Project and display the selection (e.g. on an overhead, LCD or plasma monitor, or a smart board);
- Create courseware with the selections. (Courseware is paper copies of published works or digital copies that are emailed, linked, or hyperlinked to, or posted on a secure network as part of a course of study).
Please be sure to provide appropriate bibliographic information (author, title, date, publishing information, incl. URL) and include the following note on anything you copy under the AC license:
This material has been copied/scanned/digitized under permission from Access Copyright. Further reproduction, distribution, or transmission is prohibited, except as otherwise permitted by law.”
