Or, if the issue they want is included in the portion of the National Geographic Online included with a subscription, subscribe. This title is not that expensive.

The borrowing library is responsible for getting clearance and paying any necessary fees for copying each individual article, are they not?

They would likely be better off asking to buy an extra copy thru a state listserve, or looking on abebooks.

Let's be clear - there is absolutely no question about copyright law when it comes to lending the actual physical volume - that's covered under the "First sale" doctrine, assuming the volume is an "original", not itself a copy.

 

I agree with the others that actually scanning (making a copy) the entire issue is a legal problem, assuming of course that the issue in question is still under copyright - so far as I know the cutoff is still 1923 in the US.

If you wanted to send the issue for in house use only I think you are within copyright law but you are right you can’t scan/copy an entire issue.

Subject: [SERIALST] ILLing entire issues

 

Hi,

 

For the first time, a library requested that we scan an entire issue of National Geographic through interlibrary Loan.  Is this a copyright violation? 

 

I know with books a conservative allowance for book scanning is 10% or 1 chapter.  Does anyone know what the copyright restrictions are for scanning journals?  I'm thinking 1 article.

 

Also, a staff member was wondering if you could legally send bound journals through the mail for ILL as you can books.  I don't think we'd do this as our journals are in-library use only, but it was an interesting question to consider.

 

Thank you,

Jason Skoog
