a) 3-D models of real bones b) the original photographs of the 3-D models c) handouts of the photographs
I have an Anatomy instructor who has created digital handouts for her students comprised of photographs of bones along with her additional narrative of what each part of the bone is called. The 3-D models of the various bones that were photographed were purchased from various companies and there is no identifying mark on any of them.
The students would like to purchase these handouts in a packet (as opposed to individually printing them). My instructor is wondering what copyright issues might arise from changing the access to these documents from digital (only her students) to selling them in the bookstore (general public).
Since the documents are obviously under her copyright, the issue becomes whether she could sell photos of the 3-D models. Since the models are of something common (bones) and are not distinctive, I couldn't see any problem with her selling her handouts. Does anyone else see an issue that I might have missed?
Thanks for any insight you can give me.
