From the book you are currently reading (English only please), send a copy of a page a quarter of the way through the book (photocopy or handwritten is fine, but if handwriting, make sure it is legible!). If the page a quarter of the way through is only half a page or blank, send the preceding page. Write the title and author of the book somewhere on the page. You never know, after reading just one page, you may want to get a copy of the whole book! This is the USA only version! There is an International version as well! Thank you to @tizzicat for allowing me to use this fun swap! "The Copyright Act has a fair use doctrine. It states "In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include— (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above factors. (17 U.S. Code § 107 - Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use) It's okay to copy one page of the book you're reading. And if you think about #4, you're probably going to have a positive effect on "the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work"!" Housekeeping: SEND on TIME! RATE a 5 PROMPTLY if you receive a copied page that meets the above requirements from your partner! Be kind and give a heart if it's an extra special package! Communication is key. If you do not receive a page that meets the above requirements, message your partner. After due diligence of trying to work it out, only then rate a 1. Let me know and I will Angel! :) Flakers will be banned from my future swaps... |
