Q. Can I copy something from a website onto another document and post it into Blackboard?

As usual with copyright, the answer is maybe. 

Sometimes you want to remove content from a source or correct a distracting layout, etc., but it’s always safest to provide a link to material rather than copy it outright.

If you must copy the item then you are permitted under these conditions:

• There is no clearly visible notice prohibiting it
• The material is legitimately posted
• There is no access lock preventing the general public from accessing it
• You provide an attribution for the material

If you require any further help or guidance contact the Copyright Team.
