Thanks, Eleri ------- Forwarded message follows ------- Forwarded by: [log in to unmask] Forwarded to: [log in to unmask] Date forwarded: Wed, 29 Oct 2003 15:22:30 +0100 From: "David Orman" <[log in to unmask]> Organization: Manchester University Library To: [log in to unmask] Date sent: Wed, 29 Oct 2003 15:21:04 +0100 Send reply to: [log in to unmask] Priority: normal Subject: [JRL-STAFF] Important Copyright Change: DSU Yes, I know it's terribly dull, but could all staff who deal with enquiries about, or handle requests made via, the JRULM's Inter-Library Loan service please take note of the following important change: As a result of the introduction of a European Union Directive, the rules governing Inter-Library Loan requests for photocopies have changed. As a result, we are introducing new photocopy request forms. Leaflets are being distributed to users of DSU explaining these changes. From Friday, 31 October 2003, Library users who wish to make a request for a photocopy via our Document Supply Unit must indicate whether the material they are requesting is for purely private study or research, or will be used for commercial purposes. 'Commercial' in this context means any activity which is intended to raise money (even if that money is for charitable purposes). If a request is for material which will be used for commercial purposes, then a copyright fee will be charged in addition to the usual charge for the request. This copyright fee varies according to the material requested. The new (white) Inter-Library Loan request forms, which require Library users to declare whether or not their request is for commercial purposes, will be introduced on Friday 31 October. The old (white) request forms will not be accepted from that date. Would staff who deal with such requests when DSU is closed please note the following revised procedures: ACCEPTING REQUESTS: Before accepting an Inter-Library Loan service request for a photocopy, please check that the back of the form has been completed. If the person making the request has indicated that the request is for purely private study or research, the existing procedures should be followed. If the person making the request has indicated that the request is for commercial purposes, go to http://www.bl.uk/services/document/searchserials.html#current and find the title of the serial. A copyright fee will be indicated. This fee (which IS refundable if the request cannot be satisfied) should be charged in addition to the normal request charge and a receipt provided. If you would like more information, please contact Joan Lowe or myself.
