Copyright law is a part of the U.S. Constitution (1976). Copyright law protects any original, creative work. There does not have to be copyright documentation. Copyright protection is the life of the author plus 70 years. Works created before 1923 are considered "public domain". These can be used by anyone without permission! "Fair use" allows teachers and students to use some of the copyrighted materials for teaching and research. Always document your resources!

It is just like a book, magazine, CD, or video that has been produced and sold. Ideas belong to the creator! You cannot copy and paste from the website unless you use quotes and document the source!! Put it into your own words! All resources used must be documented!
