According to the U.S. Copyright Office, "Fair use is a legal doctrine that promotes freedom of expression by permitting the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances." An expanded definition is available at copyright.gov.

We cannot provide copyright advice.

We recommend you review the Cornell Copyright Guide and the Columbia University Libraries Fair Use page. Please see the links below for additional resources about fair use.
