Copyright Conditions That Apply to the CAIN Web Site

Introduction

All the material at the CAIN site is covered by copyright law. The note specifies the basis on which the CAIN Project Team has obtained copyright permission to use the material that it provides on the CAIN web site, and on what basis anyone consulting the site can use the material.

The Main Types of Material at the CAIN Site

The material at the CAIN site falls into the following main categories:
  • text written by members of the CAIN Project Team
  • text written especially for the CAIN site by other people
  • text that was scanned from an existing publication
  • photographs, and other images, generated by any of the above sources

    Each web page of the CAIN site specifies who holds the copyright for the material. Users of the CAIN site are permitted to make a single copy of material for their private use. Anyone who wishes to make multiple copies, or to use the material at a web site, or to use the material in a commercial publication (paper or electronic), will need contact the Project Manager (address below) and the original copyright holder.

    Copyright Clearance Obtained by CAIN

    It is the intention of the CAIN Project Team to ensure that every effort is made to obtain copyright permission for material which is presented on the CAIN web pages.

    Where the CAIN Project Team has been responsible for writing text, or taking photographs, that appear on a particular web page then the copyright rests with CAIN. Anyone wishing to make multiple copies, or to use the material at a web site, or to reproduce the material commercially, should contact the Project Manager (address below).

    Where the CAIN Project Team have commissioned text especially for the CAIN web site then the copyright rests with the person named on the particular page. Anyone wishing to make multiple copies, or to use the material at a web site, or reproduce the material commercially, should contact the Project Manager (address below) first and then the author.

    Where the material was obtained from an existing publication, the CAIN Project Team have obtained permission from the author and the publisher to include the extracts in question at the CAIN web site. This permission does not cover multiple copies, or use at another web site, or commercial reproduction, by users of the CAIN site. Anyone wishing to make multiple copies, or to use the material at a web site, or to reproduce the material commercially, should contact the author and the publisher.

    Anyone using the CAIN service has an implicit right of 'fair use'. Obviously a copy of the material can be stored in electronic form on the users local computer. It is also acceptable that a single paper copy may be made by the user. Any further use of the material, for example mounting the material at another web site or publishing the information in another form, is likely to be in breach of copyright and the user will have to obtain explicit permission for such use from the copyright holder.

    Contacting CAIN

    It any user is in doubt about the copyright applying to any of the material available at the CAIN web site, they should contact the Project Manager before using the information.
