Copyright laws for electronic journals Jennifer L. Edwards 25 Jan 1995 22:53 UTC

This is being posted to EMEDIA and SERIALST.

Does anyone know, or know of good sources, on copyright issues/laws regarding
electronic journals in regards to public access, e.g. a patron downloading
to disk, or printing articles or issues.

Would these follow the same guidelines as for copying print journals, or
is this up to individual publishers such as through licensing fees, port
restrictions, etc.?

I would appreciate any thoughts any of you may have regarding this topic.
Thanks.
