Technology Uses of Copyrighted Works
Chapter 4 – Machine Reproduction – Photocopying
Recommendations to Government Agencies
The Library of Congress, the Copyright Office, and NCLIS, in consultation with the library associations, journal publishers, and library consortia, should explore the possibility of including in the Conservation of Serials project - a data base of information on serials, including the title, the publisher, ISSN - information concerning (1) the copyright status of journal issues, both current and older; (2) whether the publisher permits copying beyond that permitted by the statute; (3) whether the journal is in CCC or other clearance systems; and (4) what, if any, sources of authorized copies exist. The Library of Congress or any other organization planning to establish a nonprofit periodicals copying center should consider the discussion of such centers in this report.212
