When
using these facilities, clients need to be aware of the following:
Holmesglen Institute of TAFE does not authorise you to make
infringing reproductions of copyright material on this computer
equipment. It is your responsibility to make sure that any reproductions
you make do not infringe copyright.
The
Institute will take disciplinary action where appropriate.
If
you install or copy unauthorised material protected by copyright
without the permission of the copyright owner, you are infringing
copyright. This includes printing material, saving to disk and
copying a file from one disk to another. Reproducing part of a
work may infringe copyright, if the part is important (it need
not be a large part). A copyright owner is entitled to take legal
action against a person who infringes his or her copyright.
You
should check whether there are any special conditions for the
material you are viewing, particularly if the material is on a
CD-ROM or an on-line database. If you are viewing material on
the Internet, you should check whether there is a statement about
copyright on the site where the material is stored.
If
you copy material for your research or study, you would not normally
be infringing copyright provided your copying is fair. In deciding
whether your use is fair, you should take into account:
(a)
the purpose and character of the dealing
(b)
the nature of the work or adaptation
(c)
the possibility of obtaining the work within a reasonable time
at an ordinary commercial price
(d)
the effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value
of, the work
(e) where only part of the work or adaptation is copied - the
amount and substantiality of the part copied taken in relation
to the whole work or adaptation
