| | Fair use - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | On appeal, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals found that the thumbnails were fair use and remanded the case to the lower court for trial after issuing a revised opinion on July 7, 2003. | | | Fair use tempers copyright's exclusive rights to serve the purpose of copyright law, which the U.S. Constitution defines as the promotion of "the Progress of Science and useful Arts" (I.1.8). | | | The term "fair use" is unique to the United States; a similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. |

| | Stanford Copyright & Fair Use - Fair Use |
| | Fair use is a copyright principle based on the belief that the public is entitled to freely use portions of copyrighted materials forpurposes of commentary and criticism. | | | If it's not a fair use, then you are infringing upon the rights of the copyright owner and may be liable for damages. | | | Unfortunately, if the copyright owner disagrees with your fair use interpretation, the dispute will have to be resolved by courts or arbitration. |

| | Fair use - Encyclopedia Dramatica |
| | What they may or may not realize is that fair use does not come in to play until a judgement has been reached in court that states there was actual infringement to begin with. | | | However, in cases of widespread infringement (for example, peer-to-peer filesharing), the courts will some times consider the aggregate effect in determining whether or not a use is fair. | | | What exists in such works, at least in the U.S. where an author's so-called "moral" rights are unrecognised, is a phantom copyright: very few uses, apart from printing someone's jernal and selling it, are likely to be held unfair, and so it will be almost impossible for the copyright holder to successfully defend their copyright. |

| | Fair Use - UC Copyright Web Site |
| | If it is unclear whether a particular use is permitted under fair use, you should consider obtaining permission to use the work from the copyright owner. | | | If a proposed use falls outside the limits of these two guidelines, you should analyze the particular facts of your situation against the four factors of fair use in order to conclude that the copyright activity is permitted. | | | Therefore, the four factors of fair use need to be evaluated, and, if necessary, a campus OTT Copyright Contact may be consulted for assistance in determining whether the contemplated use may be fair. |

| | Fair Use in a Nutshell |
| | Remember that fair use is a "defense" to copyright infringement, not a right. | | | If the use diminishes the market for the copyrighted work (or portions of it), including revenues from licensing fees, it is probably not a fair use. | | | Only a court can determine with authority whether a particular use is a fair use. |

| | Fair Use Guidelines for Educational Multimedia |
| | Fair use is a legal principle that provides certain limitations on the exclusive rights** of copyright holders. | | | While only the courts can authoritatively determine whether a particular use is fair use, these guidelines represent the participants'**** consensus of conditions under which fair use should generally apply and examples of when permission is required. | | | The purpose of these guidelines is to provide guidance on the application of fair use principles by educators, scholars and students who develop multimedia projects using portions of copyrighted works under fair use rather than by seeking authorization for non-commercial educational uses. |

| | Fair use is usually determined by these four factors: (1) the purpose and character of the use—for example, commercial or not-for-profit educational; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount used in proportion to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect on the market value of the copyrighted work. | | | According to the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, cameras and broadcasting equipment may not be used in federal courts, except in the case of a ceremony. | | | Fictionalization is used as a means of protecting the source, the writer and the publication from lawsuits. |

| | Fair Use and DRM |
| | Fair use is limited to those uses that the courts have previously affirmed, and new uses cannot evolve. | | | Fair use serves a crucial role in limiting the reach of what would otherwise be an intolerably expansive grant of rights to copyright owners. | | | Often legal commentators are tempted to restrict their discussion of fair use to the uses that have been tested in published court decisions. |

| | Fair Use |
| | The beauty of the Fair Use Doctrine is that it is the only nod to the possible need for artistic freedom and free speech in the entire copyright law, and it is already capable of overriding the other restrictions. | | | Court cases of appropriation which focus on Fair Use and its need to be updated could begin to open up this cultural quagmire through legal precedent. | | | Today, this kind of encouragement for our natural urge to remix culture appears only vaguely within the copyright act under the "Fair Use" doctrine. |

| | Fair Use of Copyrighted Materials |
| | There is one special provision of the law that allows a court to refuse to award any damages at all if it so chooses, even if the copying at issue was not a fair use. | | | If you have a "contract pending," digitize and use the image in accordance with these Rules of Thumb until the license is finalized and you have received the licensed digital image. | | | Maybe it is reasonable to simply throw up our hands and say, "What's the use?" After all, many legal scholars, politicians, copyright owners and users and their lawyers agree that fair use is so hard to understand that it fails to provide effective guidance for the use of others' works today. |
