the non-competitive right to use of copyrighted material without giving the author
the right to compensation or to sue for infringement of copyright. With the growing
use of copy machines, teachers and businesses copy articles, pages of texts, charts
and excerpts for classroom use, advice to employees or to assist in research without
violating the copyright. For example, Professor Elmer Smedley makes 100 copies of
a photograph from Time magazine of starving Somalians to illustrate to his students
the deprivations in Africa (which is fair use), but then Smedley publishes a book
Africa on the Brink, and uses the photograph in a chapter on starvation (not fair
use), and is responsible to the photographer for a royalty.
