EDUCATION and FAIR USE - THE FEDERAL COPYRIGHT LAW
  107: Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair Use

Notwithstanding the provisions of section 106, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include:
    (1)  the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
    (2)  the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
    (3)  the effect of the use upon the potential market for or the value of the copyrighted work.
