Rules for Lookup Volunteers
-
Volunteers may do unlimited lookups if
and only if:
-
The lookup volunteer is the actual author
and copyright holder of the publication.
-
The lookup volunteer is using primary source
documents ... whether they are treking to the courthouse or using their
own xeroxed copies of public domain documents.
-
The lookup volunteer has written permission
from the author / copyright holder to use their publication for lookups
-
Volunteers may be able to make certain
limited
scope lookups in copyrighted publications under the "fair use" provisions
of existing law.
-
Potential volunteers are encouraged to
review the explanations of copyright protection, especially the "fair
use" provisions, available at rootsweb.com.
To request a lookup from any
of the references, click on the name of the owner and ask them politely.
Remember, they are volunteers so they don't have to do this.
Please remember to say thank you
to the volunteer.
Rules for Lookup Requests
-
Mention the name of the book in your message.
-
Our volunteers aren't mind-readers and
-
they may not remember which books they
volunteered for.
-
Make your requests for lookup limited in
scope.
-
"Tell me everything about the Smiths" is
probably too broad.
-
Researchers should not ask, nor
may lookup volunteers offer, to violate copyright laws in responding
to requests for lookups in any copyrighted material. -- http://www.usgenweb.org/volunteers/copyright.html
-
Be sure and note any special requirements of the volunteers listed below.
If you haven't already read it,
please go to the US GenWeb Copyrights FAQ Page and read it carefully before
you request a lookup or volunteer to do lookups. This page has important
information about copyright laws as they apply to the USGenWeb project.
