The sole purpose of the electronic reserve system will be to facilitate access to lawfully acquired materials for classroom use by students. Neither the library nor the course instructors will charge for access to electronic reserve materials. Any charges will be limited to the cost of printing materials on library or computer lab laser printers. How to seek copyright permissions from publishers Following is a sample letter for use when requesting permission to use copyrighted material for course reserves. I am requesting permission to place the cited material in the UAF Rasmuson Library Reserve collection in print format and in the Electronic Reserve system in digital format.
Online access is restricted to students enrolled in the course and is delivered free of charge.
The material can only be accessed by course number or instructor name and is not title, author, or subject searchable. A copyright compliance statement will be attached to each document in the Electronic Reserve system. Because time is of the essence, I would appreciate an early reply to my request. Thank you for assisting in making this material available to the students in my course.
