Dear Lesley

Your only solutions are the BL copyright-cleared option or to seek
permission from the rights holder (probably the publisher)

Very many thanks to all who got back to us on this one.

 

It doesn't seem that there is an easy, free way round this one.  Most
people recommended ordering a copyright-fee-paid copy from the British
Library, which allows you to make as many copies as you like.  Other
useful suggestions included asking on lis-ill, paying the publishers, or
speaking to the publishers to see if they'll waive the fee.

Subject: Copyright query - multiple copies

Hello,

 

We're hoping someone might be able to help with this copyright question.

 

Someone has ordered a journal article; it's not available within the NHS
so we've obtained it from a non-NHS source.  It transpires that our user
wants to use this article for a journal club.

 

Since it's not from an NHS library and therefore not covered by the NHS
copyright licence, she has signed a copyright declaration form for it.
She is planning to get all the other members of her journal club to come
to the library to order a copy of this article too.

                                                    

But the copyright form they'll all be signing says "no other person with
whom I work or study has made or intends to make, at or about the same
time as this request, a request for substantially the same material for
substantially the same purpose".

 

We are using the text from the BL copyright declaration form, but can't
quite believe that this would make it impossible for them to use the
article for a journal club.

 

Does this same restriction apply to articles from all other non-NHS
libraries?  If so, what is the legitimate way of getting hold of
sufficient copies for a journal club?

 

 

Thank you for any help or advice!

 

Kind regards,

 

Lesley
