573.0. "Corporate policy & Copyrighted Materials" by PEACHS::BEKELE (Genuine Buzz Of Hushed Excitement) Sat Jul 16 1988 17:19


	I would like to get some feedback on copyright issue(s)
or a pointer to a conference where the discussion has already
taken place.  

	The issue I am interested in has to do with postings 
of copyrighted materials from various sources in various 
conferences or distribution of such material in the form of Email.
Are there any corporate policies or guidelines? What are your
thoughts?

	The most appropriate place for such a discussion would be in the {RAINBO,MOSAIC}::LAWS conference (press KP7 or use the SELECT command to add it to your notebook). While there may be corporate policies about this, I can't recall having ever seen any. And it's really not particularly important what we think, but rather what copyright law allows as fair use of copyrighted material. If you want a definitive opinion, you'd have to get someone from the Law department to address the issue, and I don't think you'll get them to do so in a Notes conference. Tom
