No, not even if the friend is a student and wishing to
use the same material for non-commercial
research or study. For example, five students may each make one print out of a web page for use
in class. However, one student may not make five copies – one for personal use and one for
each
of the other four students. A copy of substantially the same material is not allowed to be supplied
to more than one person at substantially the same time and for substantially the same purpose
(unless the relevant institution has a licence allowing this or the terms and conditions on the web
site allow it).
