Copyright Compliance Policy

To ensure that Touro College is meeting U.S. standards for Copyright compliance and Fair Use policy, all copyrighted material included in your Blackboard courses must be submitted to your local Touro College library staff. Library staff will input or link the material in EReserves (by your name and course number), for which there is a link in Blackboard, after filing the material with the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) and paying any associated royalty fees for you. Such material includes ebooks and ejournal articles, scanned book chapters and journal articles, and Web sites, documents, databases, etc. Your library staff will also provide a link in EReserves to Course Reserves pages in the Library Catalog should you have print books and media in your library's reserve collection. If you have any questions concerning copyrighted material, contact Marina Zilberman, Chief Midtown Librarian, at 212.463.0400 ext. 5221 or marinaz@touro.edu.
