COPYRIGHT
INFORMATION
Copyright is a complex area of law and if one has doubts
you can check the details that are available at:
http://www.copyright.gov/ . The following are some general guidelines
that should be considered.
General Statement
It is vital for genealogists/family historians to understand
copyright laws, not only for the protection of others' rights, but to
ensure that they retain the rights to their own work. However, it is
also important for us to remember that our work consists in large part
of the discovery and reporting of preexisting material. We can only
copyright the material we create. We can not copyright the material we
discover.
Regardless of the legalities, the USGenWeb Project does not want to
offend our many friends, whether professional or volunteer, who work
tirelessly for little profit to publish reference sources. Let us not
make these people our enemies -- we want them as our partners. Because
the rights of authors and the purpose of the USGenWeb Project to freely
share genealogical information online may sometimes conflict, The
USGenWeb Project has established these guidelines and policies which we
believe reflect the general state of U.S. Copyright Law (Title 17,
U.S.Code).
The 5
Golden Rules of Copyright
Materials published before 1923 are absolutely safe.
In the U.S., facts (data) are always public domain and may be copied without
permission.
Inclusion of preexisting material in a new work does not change the copyright
status of the preexisting material.
If the use of original material created by someone else diminishes the market
value of that work, then their copyright may have been violated.
Getting written (not email) permission from the author/publisher of a
copyrighted work is the surest way to protect yourself and the USGW.
Project against claims of copyright infringement.
