Colleagues, Suppose a professor is developing a new course for which there is no textbook available. How can an instructor assign students to read a selection of articles as the "text" for the course without running afoul of copyright? Essentially, the articles or excerpts would function as the text, but the instructor would refer to them in course materials as assigned readings. I can imagine three ways of doing this so far, but I'm not certain of the copyright implications. 1) Copy articles or excerpts and distribute them to students in class. 2) Assign students to locate hardcopies of articles and read them. 3) Assign students to read articles that are available online via research databases. Thanks in advance. Valerie A. Lang Instructor/Librarian Hudson Valley Community College 80 Vandenburgh Avenue Troy, NY 12180 518.629.7319
