and
version 1:

| - * The fair-use policy does not apply to the FIRST Assessment Database since the database is open to anyone (i.e., any faculty member in the US) and available via the Internet. |
| - * That said, if the scope of use of copyrighted materials by a particular faculty member were small (say 1 to 3 questions on an exam of 25 or 50 questions), then most publishers would not care. However, with faculty from across the nation contributing to this database, there is the possibility that most, if not all of a textbook’s questions will wind up in the database. |
| - 3. Ideally, a faculty member would rewrite a question before administering to students and then submitting to the database. |
| - 4. There are no blanket rules in copyright permissions. Permission to use copyrighted materials is the sole right of the entity that holds the copyright. They determine how, when and why their materials can be used. |
| - 5. For this reason, Amy recommends obtaining blanket permission from a publisher for faculty to upload test items to the database. It is in our best interest to contact major publishers of test items/text books to work out a blanket agreement with them ahead of time. |
