I want to email an article to a friend at another college. What do I need to do?
Answer
Follow these steps:
- If the article is posted on the open Web, send the link to the article.
- If the article is in a database, create a persistent link. (For more information, see the persistent link guide.) Please note that some Davidson-specific links may not work at other institutions.
- If the article is not posted online, do a fair use analysis to determine if it is legal to send a copy of the article.
- If you determine it is not fair use, request permission from the copyright owner before you copy and send the article.
