UBC's Access Copyright Agreement

Schedule E: Terms of Copying
(Clause 2(c) of the Agreement)

1. All Copies shall be made onto paper except for interlibrary loan transmission. For interlibrary loan transmission, a Library Worker who receives a Copy in digital form may provide the individual who has requested it with a paper Copy only and thereafter will promptly destroy the Electronic File. A Library Worker who sends a Copy in digital form to a non-AUCC institution entitled to receive such Copy should advise the institution to do the same.

2. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no copying shall exceed 15% of a Published Work or the following, whichever is greater:

(a) an entire newspaper article or a page;

(b) an entire single article from a journal, magazine, or periodical issue (including a set of conference proceedings) containing other works;

(c) one chapter, provided it is no more than 20% of a book.

Access Copyright shall use reasonable efforts to clear requests to copy in excess of these limits.

3. At the discretion of Access Copyright, and with its prior written consent, up to the whole of a work which is out of print in all editions may be copied.

4. Access Copyright shall use reasonable efforts to clear requests to copy works published in excluded countries or by excluded publishers and excluded works. It is understood that such clearances may be subject to a different tariff than for other copies governed by this Schedule, as required by the rights holder.

5. The Institution shall not make any Copies of any Published Work which to the knowledge of the Institution or the person doing the copying or ordering the Copies is commercially available as a separate publication at a reasonable price and within a reasonable period of time.

6. The Institution shall not engage in systematic, cumulative copying of the same Published Work for the same user within the same calendar year beyond the limits set out in clause 2 of this Schedule.

7. No Copies of Published Works may be assembled into Coursepacks.

8. The Institution shall include on at least one page of all Copies made pursuant to clause 2(c) of this Agreement the international copyright symbol ©, a credit to the publisher, the artist or illustrator of any artistic work reproduced (where known) and the author or authors (where known) and shall display the following prominent notice:

"This material has been copied under licence from Access Copyright. Resale or further copying of this material is strictly prohibited."
