A Reminder About Copyright and Record Keeping

The CONTU Guidelines state that records of filled photocopy requests need to be kept by the borrowing library for the current year and three previous years. Thus, as of 2007, ILL departments should retain records from 2004 to the present [CONTU Guideline: 4]. Many legal experts suggest that records should be discarded after the required time.
