Neither of these recommendations is binding, and both have been notified to the Office of Fair Trading. For the time being, until the copyright situation with illustrators groups is resolved, the licence only applies to the literary material in publications, not to any artistic works such as photographs, illustrations, diagrams, figures or graphs. In the same way, students and staff can also access the material via the Internet from their lodging-houses and homes away from campus. Provided that the authentication procedures on the university servers are secure and conform to best practice, they can access it via the Internet, thus avoiding long-distance call charges. If the institution makes multiple printouts, or multiple copies of printouts, the number of copies is limited to the number of students on the course.
Students can also print the material themselves for their own use.
The Compulsory Header must also be printed. The digitised files must have a Compulsory Header added. Students printing out for their own purposes are also required to print the coversheet and institutions should take care to ensure that they are aware of this requirement. This serves to draw the reader's attention to the fact that the digitisation is a copy, not the original, and that errors can arise in the digitisation process. This is necessary because increasingly the material will be read alongside other material originally published in digital form.
