Course materials uploaded to an online learning management system such as Canvas involve copyright laws but also in some cases the publisher's license, and "educational use" is not always enough to gain permission to use these materials.
The information in this guide can help you figure out the correct usage of course materials.
STEVENS COPYRIGHT POLICY
The Stevens copyright policy states that permission must be obtained from the copyright holder when using copyrighted materials in a course beyond what can be considered fair use, and notes that "Stevens is committed to the support of fair use principles."
Please email library@stevens.edu to consult with a librarian for guidance on the use of copyrighted course materials.
For all Canvas-related questions, please email support@stevens.edu to create a support ticket.
Posting an item to Canvas for educational purposes does not exempt an instructor from copyright regulations. The information presented here provides guidance but should not be considered legal advice.
