NOTICE: WARNING CONCERNING COPYRIGHT RESTRICTIONS

The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, USC) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be "used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research." If a user makes a request for later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of "fair use", that user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if in its judgement, fulfillment of the order would involve violations of copyright laws.

By sending an e-mail request(s) for Interlibrary Loan, you agree to abide by regulations specified by both the borrowing and the lending library concerning the use of the borrowed item(s), and promise to return the material in good condition to the Reference Desk within the allotted time (this applies to loaned materials).
