No one should breach copyright, so the first thing to
do is ensure that your actions do no infringe
copyright and that you always clearly acknowledge your sources. If you wish to use another
person’s work in a way which does not fall within the exceptions then you should obtain permission
from the copyright holder. If you are unable to identify the copyright holder, then consider what
damage may be suffered by the copyright holder by you using their work. If your proposed use will
not result in you making financial gain or the copyright owner losing revenue or prestige, then you
may consider using the work with a statement inviting anyone who believes they hold copyright
which is infringed to contact your. Be prepared that if a copyright owner requests material to
be
removed, you may have to remove it.
Use common sense. If, by your action, someone is
likely to lose revenue, then very seriously
consider your action.
