Do I have to submit copyright payment for a Book Chapter request through ILLiad?

Symptom
  • You are requesting a book chapter and you want to know if you have to submit any copyright payment.
Applies to
  • ILLiad
Resolution

Here is some information about Copyright and Book Chapter requests:

  1. You do not need to track book chapter requests for copyright compliance and pay copyright royalties on them.
  2. he guideline for books is more around the percentage of the total work being copied – which should not exceed a guideline of about 15% of the work.
  3. If a library has a patron who needs more than that amount of a book, the library should place a loan request for the entire work rather than individual copy requests for multiple chapters.
